5.0 out of 5 stars nice collection of counterexamples, February 12, 2008
This review is from: Counterexamples in Probability And Statistics (Wadsworth and Brooks/Cole Statistics/Probability Series) (Hardcover)
Joe Romano is a Stanford Professor known for his work on resampling. Andy Siegel was a contemporary of mine in graduate school at the Stanford University Statistics Department. Although the title suggests statistical examples, the text is primarily a collection of counterexamples in probability. The authors write in an engaging style. This was the first book for both authors but each has gone on to author or co-author at least one other book.
This book is perfect for a graduate student in mathematics or statistics with a serious interest in probability. It is particularly good if they have just completed their first advanced course in probability theory as the concepts would be fresh.

A warning though. This is great for those seriously interested in probability but would be difficult reading for those with just a passing interest.
