This is a two volume collection of seminal papers in the statistical sciences written during the past 100 years. These papers have each had an outstanding influence on the development of statistical theory and practice over the last century. Each paper is preceded by an introduction written by an authority in the field providing background information and assessing its influence. Readers will enjoy a fresh outlook on now well-established features of statistical techniques and philosophy by becoming acquainted with the ways they have been developed. It is hoped that some readers will be stimula

This important book provides an up-to-date comprehensive and down-to-earth survey of the theory and practice of extreme value distributions - one of the most prominent success stories of modern applied probability and statistics. Originated by E J Gumbel in the early forties as a tool for predicting floods, extreme value distributions evolved during the last 50 years into a coherent theory with applications in practically all fields of human endeavor where maximal or minimal values (the so-called extremes) are of relevance. The book is of usefulness both for a beginner with a limited probabili

Almost all published results on multivariate t-distributions (spanning the last 50 years) are collected in this comprehensive reference. The book begins with theoretical probabilistic results and then presents statistical aspects. Generalizations and applications are dealt with in the final chapters, including material on estimation and regression models of special value for practitioners in statistics and economics. A comprehensive bibliography of over 350 references is included.
