Reviews

This is a very nice and readable graduate level textbook of theoretical statistics. ... The book is intended to be used as either a one- or a two-semester textbook of statistical inference for graduate level students, but it can also be of use to a wider group of readers interested in theoretical statistics. (Zuzana Praskova, Mathematical Reviews, August, 2020)
