Counterexamples in Probability And Statistics

"The book is well organized...the crisp style of presentation distinguishes the book from most commonly used texts...I recommend it highly as a reference handbook for use by biology students...Also, it will serve as a convenient source for statistical practitioners. The book has the broadest coverage of relevant topics among applied texts at this level. I have already found it highly useful on my own shelf. The authors are obviously well acquainted with their business and communicate their ideas clearly and succinctly."-Journal of the American Statistical Society
