This book began many years ago as course notes for students at the
University of Bath, and later at the University of Kent. Students
used draft versions of the chapters, which were consequently
revised. Second and third year students, as well as those taking
MSc courses have used selections of the chapters. In particular,
Chapters I to 7 (only) have been the basis of a very successful
second-year course, the more difficult sections being omitted. The
aims of this particular course were: - (a) to cover some
interesting and useful applications of statistics with an emphasis
on applications, but with really adequate theory; (b) to lay the
foundations for interesting third-year courses; (c) to tie up with
certain areas of pure mathematics and numerical analysis. 2
Students will find Chapter I a useful means of revising the t, X
and F procedures, which is material assumed in this text, see
Section 1.1. Later sections of Chapter I cover robustness and can
be omitted by second-year students or at a first reading. Chapter 2
introduces some simple statistical models, so that the discussion
of later chapters is more meaningful
