Handbook on Statistical Distributons and Models (Wiley Series in Probability and Statistics) Book

This volume will soon be recognized as the definitive work on statistical distributions from the standpoint of a quick and handy, but complete reference. It compartmentalizes, in an abbreviated, but consistent format, the entire array of the fifty-or-so models in continuous univariate distributions, discrete multivariate distributions, continuous multivariate distributions, and univariate discrete distributions. The book focuses on the many ways in which various statistical distributions have been constructed, investigated, and applied over the past thirty-plus years through carefully crafted presentations of historical, basic, and then specialized properties. The author discusses the key facts and formulas for each distribution, fine-tunes the mathematical background, and offers ready access to vital information gleaned from hard-to-find places across the literature.Read More
