Format: Hardcover
The focus of this dictionary is mathematical statistics, not applied statistics, and is intended for graduates and professionals. The definitions are not simple and include lots of equations. There is no other dictionary like it and it has the potential for being developed into a very useful handbook. I think it needs a lot of work, though. First, the coverage is lacking. I could not find many terms that should be in a dictionary targeted at professionals (cf. Dodge). Second, many of the definitions could stand revising for clarity (cf. Upton & Cook). Third, while there are many figures, they don't always illustrate the point as well as they could (cf. Sahai & Khurshid; Upton & Cook).

Brian Everitt is a well known statistician and author. This dictionary was prepared by a scholar and includes many famous statistician as well as statistical terms. It provides concise and accurate descriptions and in many cases also includes pictures and formulae. Literature references are often mentioned. Particularly useful to biostatisticians. It is an excellent reference document.

Format: Hardcover
An excellent yet concise encyclopedy of surprisingly wide range of statistical topics, very dense and ballanced text. Exhaustive descriptions and definitions on few lines of text with good referrences. I can hardly think of basic or advanced statistical terms not included here. Thanks.

I'm finding this dictionary to be extremely useful in providing concise, understandable, and practical definitions of a myriad of statistical concepts. Wish I had had this book in hand all along, starting in college. I make it a practice of flipping the pages while commuting, just to learn/refresh my mind on the vast world of statistics.
