Recensioner i media
“EnvStats: An R Package for Environmental Statistics by Stephen Millard describes itself as a user manual for the EnvStats R package. … This book could also be used by practitioners who use statistics in other fields … . this book was an interesting read, especially in terms of opening my eyes to the work of a statistician working on compliance issues in environmental applications, usually with parametric methods applied in data-poor scenarios.” (Peter F. Craigmile, Journal of Agricultural, Biological, and Environmental Statistics, Vol. 22 (1), 2017)
