The second edition differs from the first in that it has been made more "reader friendly." It also includes a new chapter, Chapter 4, on Gaussian and Poisson experiments because of their growing role in the field, especially in nonparametrics and semiparametrics.8 aMost of the subsequent chapters have been entirely rewritten, and the nonparametrics of Chapter 7 have been amplified.".8 a"Much of the material has been taught in a second-year graduate course at Berkeley for thirty years. It represents a link between traditional material, including maximum likelihood and Wald's theory of statistical decision functions, together with comparison and distances for experiments. This volume is not intended to replace monographs on specialized subjects, but it will help to place them in a coherent perspective."--BOOK JACKET. 0aMathematical statisticsxAsymptotic theory.1 aYang, Grace Lo. 0aSpringer series in statistics.
