Reviews

“This text looks to bridge the gap between a general undergraduate education in a mathematically oriented field and a career-oriented graduate study in Statistics. In my opinion, the authors achieve this goal. … this text is a quality candidate for a primary book for an undergraduate course in Probability theory or a graduate course that introduces the basics of Statistical theory.” (Grant Innerst, MAA Reviews, July 18, 2021) “The text provides the necessary framework for an undergraduate course for anyone who is interested in either exploring job opportunities in the data analytics field or in attending a graduate program in statistics or biostatistics.” (Bülent Karasözen, zbMATH 1454.62004, 2021)
