Countless professionals and students who use statistics in their work rely on the ten-volume (including supplement) Encyclopedia of Statistical Sciences as a superior and unique source of information on statistical theory, methods, and applications.

Up-to-date bibliographies, thorough cross-referencing, and extensive indexing facilitate quick access to specific information and provide an indispensable platform for further study and research.
