Traditional texts in mathematical statistics can seem heavily weighted with optimality theory of the various flavors developed in the 1940s and50s, and not particularly relevant to statistical practice. Mathematical Statistics stands apart. While mathematically rigorous, its focus is on providing a set of useful tools that allow readers to understand the theoretical underpinnings of statistical methodology. Emphasizing inferential procedures within the framework of parametric models, this treatment reaches beyond "nice" mathematics to provide a balanced, practical text that brings life and relevance to a subject so often perceived as irrelevant and dry.
