Reviews

The book offers a surprising and elevated view on reliability theory. ... We also find numerous significant examples and relevant numerical illustrations. A consistent set of bibliographic references concludes each chapter of the book. We think that the novel perspectives proposed by this work represent valuable contributions in the dynamic field of reliability theory. (Eugen Paltanea, zbMATH 1381.60004, 2018)
