β¦ Synopsis
Praise for George E. P. Box and An Accidental Statistician
"I found most interesting the parts describing how he developed as a statistician, the intellectual influences on him, and the genesis of the ideas for which he is so well known. . . . There is no doubt that this [memoir] will be a useful autobiographical document from one of our greatest statisticians."
βIain Johnstone, Professor of Statistics, Stanford University
"Not only is [An Accidental Statistician] interesting from a statistical and history of statistics perspective, it is also a marvelous example of grammatically sound writing of beautiful style and quality."
β Geert Molenberghs, Professor of Biostatistics, Limburgs Universitair Centru, Belgium
"As a master craftsman, [George Box has] taught so many apprentices over the years. It is wonderful to see the spreading effects of [his] teachings throughout the world today."
β Norman R. Draper, Professor Emeritus, University of WisconsinΒMadison
