"…an excellent introductory text to modern nonparametric methodology and also should make a useful reference for engineers and statisticians. The mixture of exemplary scholarship, good exposition, insightful examples, and occasional dashes of humor make this book an enjoyable read." (Journal of the American Statistical Association, September 2008)

"The book is an essential textbook for graduate courses in engineering and the physical sciences, and is also a valuable reference work for practitioners. It is accessible and thus useful to a wide audience." (Computing Reviews, Feb 2008)

 "This book is clearly written and well organized. I liked very much the photos and historical details of statisticians." (International Statistical Review, 2008)
