Review text

This book aspires to introduce statistical methodology to a wide audience through resampling the data at hand. It is argued that the resampling methods -- permutations, cross-validation and the bootstrap -- are easy to learn and easy to apply. Moreover, they require no mathematics beyond high school algebra and are applicable to a broad range of subjects. The book may be a resource for industrial statisticians, statistical consultants and researcher professionals in science, engineering and technology. The book is suitable for classroom use and individual, self-study purposes. Numerous practical examples and exercises are provided. The author also guides the reader in the use of popular computer programs as well as freely available statistical shareware. The chapters of the book are as follows: Descriptive statistics; Cause and effect testing hypotheses; When the distribution is known; Estimation; Power of a test; Categorical data; Experimental design and analysis; Multiple variables and multiple hypotheses; Classification and discrimination; Survival analysis and reliability; Which statistic should I use? The appendices are: Program your own resampling statistics, \(\text{C}^{++}\), SC and Stata code for permutation tests, SAS and S-Plus code for bootstraps, Resampling software.
