Probability & Statistics, Statistics 

Contains 40 of the papers presented at the Third International Meeting of Statistics in the Basque Country, held in Bilbao, Spain in August 1986. Papers present recent, important developments in statistical theory, including new methodologies, and improved or novel theoretical tools which have removed past restrictions and vastly broadened potential applications--some have already had significant impact on modeling, design, and analysis of statistical experiments. Chapters cover a wide range of topics, including data analysis, sampling theory, growth curves analysis, both theoretical and applied aspects of time series analysis, nonparametric theory, the Edgeworth expansions in statistics and probability, the bootstrap and randomization methods, density estimation, hypotheses testing, pseudorandom numbers, and sequential estimation. - from Amzon
