Reviews
"These handsomely produced volumes reprint 86 of the more important papers of one of the more important statisticians of the past century. David Cox's extraordinary breadth is strongly represented here. The style is distinctive: the ideas are at once clearly expressed and at the same time deep and revealing to even experts. A student could do well to adopt these volumes as a major part of a graduate cirriculum!" Sankhya: The Indian Journal of Statistics
"Professors Hand and Herzberg should be thanked for the efforts which have culminated with the publication of these two volumes...What makes this work of special value is David Cox's willingness to contribute commentaries on the papers." V.T. Farewell, MRC Biostatistics Unit, ISI Short Book Reviews
