Editorial Reviews
Review
'... an extremely readable book. I would have no hestitation in recommending it as the most useful reference available for people wishing to learn or teach this subject. Certainly, this book is an essential addition to any library for those who use, or wish to use, bootstrap methodology.' Stephen Brooks, Royal Statistical Society Bulletin
'This book gives a broad and up-to-date coverage of bootstrap methods with numerous applied examples, together with the underlying general concepts developed in a coherent way.' L'Enseignment Mathématique
'Davison and Hinkley's book covers a remarkably broad range of bootstrap topics ... The authors have put considerable thought and time into their exposition. For learning how and when to bootstrap, there is no better start. Metrika
Book Description
This book gives a broad and up-to-date coverage of bootstrap methods, with numerous applied examples, developed in a coherent way with the necessary theoretical basis. Applications include stratified data; finite populations; censored and missing data; linear, nonlinear, and smooth regression models; classification; time series and spatial problems. Special features of the book include: extensive discussion of significance tests and confidence intervals; material on various diagnostic methods; and methods for efficient computation, including improved Monte Carlo simulation. Each chapter includes both practical and theoretical exercises. Included with the book is a disk of purpose-written S-Plus programs for implementing the methods described in the text. Computer algorithms are clearly described, and computer code is included on a 3-inch, 1.4M disk for use with IBM computers and compatible machines. Users must have the S-Plus computer application.
