Recensioner i media

“I highly recommend this book. The topic of official statistics might seem dry and uninteresting to some, but this author provides a unique perspective that students and practitioners will find useful. Plenty of figures, illustrations and flowcharts (in colour) are used to show the concepts. Many references are included at the end of each chapter for those readers who want to delve into the topics in more depth.” (Wendy L. Martinez, International Statistical Review, Vol. 89 (3), 2021)
