From the reviews:

“The festschrift is a collection of 24 contributions stemming from a wide area of statistical models ranging from semiparametric and geoadditive regression to Bayesian inference, time series modeling, statistical regularization, and others. The topics are of current interest. … The format of the volume is uniform and nicely presented … . will be a useful resource for graduate students, researchers, and practitioners with an interest in these topics. I think the festschrift deserves a broad readership.” (Technometrics, Vol. 52 (3), August, 2010)
