作者简介
作者：(英国) 考克斯 (Cox.D.R.) 
D.R.Cox，世界著名统计学家，英国皇家学会会员暨英国社会科学院院士，美国科学院、丹麦皇家科学院外籍院士。曾任国际统计协会、伯努利数理统汁与概率学会、英国皇家统计学会主席。主要学术贡献包括Cox过程和影响深远且应用广泛的Cox比例风险模型等。
内容简介
《统计推断原理(英文版)》是统计学名家名作，包含9章内容和两个附录，前面几章介绍一些基本概念，如参数、似然、主元等，然后介绍显著性检验、渐进理论以及比较复杂的统计推断问题。还特别介绍了实验设计中基于随机化的统计推断。核心概念的解释非常清晰，即使跳过其中的数学细节，也能使读者理解。
《统计推断原理(英文版)》可作为工科、管理类学科专业本科生、研究生的教材或参考书，也可供教师、工程技术人员自学之用。
