Reading List
I am often asked to recommend a "good
statistics text," which is as difficult as recommending a good engineering
text, and for the same reason.
Both disciplines are rich, broad and complex.
Perhaps parts of them might be summarized in a single volume, but individual
topics require dedicated study. Here are a
few books that I refer to often.
- Agresti, Alan, Categorical Data Analysis, 2nd ed., Wiley,
2002

& Hall, 1989
- Cressie, Noel A. C., Statistics for Spatial Data, Wiley, 1993

Research Workers.
(First published in 1925; 14th edition was ready for publication in 1962,
when Fisher died, and was published in 1990, by the Oxford University Press,
along with Experimental Design and Scientific Inference, with
corrections to the 1991 edition, in 1993.)
