This treatment of extreme value theory is unique in book
literature in that it focuses on some beautiful theoretical results
along with applications. All the main topics covering the heart of
the subject are introduced to the reader in a systematic fashion so
that in the final chapter even the most recent developments in the
theory can be understood.
Key to the presentation is the concentration on the
probabilistic and statistical aspects of extreme values without
major emphasis on such related topics as regular variation, point
processes, empirical distribution functions, and Brownian
motion.
The work is an excellent introduction to extreme value theory at
the graduate level, requiring only some mathematical maturity.
