Reviews
"""… the first extensive book on [this subject] … This book succeeds in unifying the field by bringing in disparate topics, already available in several papers, but not easy to understand, under one roof. … a brilliant and a bold idea by an active researcher, who is now joined in coauthorship by an enthusiastic, hardworking, and talented younger peer. … it exceeds all expectations, in particular regarding the extent to which complex differential geometric notions permeate statistics."" —From the Foreword by Victor Pambuccian, Professor of Mathematics, Arizona State University"

Author Information
Victor Patrangenaru is a professor of statistics at Florida State University. He received his first PhD from the University of Haifa; his differential geometry dissertation on locally homogeneous Riemannian and pseudo-Riemannian manifolds was conferred the Morris Pulver award. His second PhD was conferred at Indiana University for his dissertation on asymptotic statistics on manifolds and their applications. He has been a recipient of the Rothrock Mathematics Teaching Award from Indiana University. Leif Ellingson is an assistant professor at Texas Tech University. He received his PhD in statistics from Florida State University; his dissertation ""Statistical Shape Analysis on Manifolds with Applications to Planar Contours and Structural Proteomics"" received the Ralph A. Bradley award. He has also been a recipient of the New Faculty Award from the Texas Tech Alumni Association. His current research interests include nonparametric statistics on manifolds, shape analysis, computational methods in statistics, and utilizing statistical methods in structural proteomics.
