Rezension

From the reviews:


THE AMERICAN STATISTICIAN


"In summary, I think that many readers with a strong interest in mathematics, statistics, physics, or other areas of science will find this book interesting and challenging. I strongly recommend it to all who are interested in science and would like to see how the ideas of both theoretical mathematics and statistics have been observed and used in real life throughout history."


MATHEMATICAL REVIEWS


"The book is nicely written and should entertain many readers…"
