由于练习等中的字体很小,有些页面似乎有点拥挤,很难阅读(但这可能是评论者年龄的函数)。某些illust、rations(例如第II页上的4.6)、术语(例如第392页上的supremum;顺便说一句,不幸的是,这里的印刷错误使似然比始终等于1)和定义(例如第60页上的事件类)似乎太难或不合时宜,但学生必须是最终的评判者。均值和方差这两个术语在第六章正式定义之前先用lsed表示。他们会觉得早点介绍这些名字会很方便,但在一些讨论中,这可能会让学生感到非常痛苦(有关插图,见第110、114、140和157页)。我敢肯定,第125页上关于生成随机变量的最后一句话也令人困惑;坦率地说,我发现一个简单的F-1是一个非常方便的工具,即使可能有其他耗时更少的方法,我也不会让学生担心。虽然我可以找到我不同意的陈述的某些部分,但在这一重要领域,这一案文是一个受欢迎的替代方案。根据当地情况,它当然应该被考虑作为概率和数理统计的第一门课程。许多人(不是所有人,我希望)会非常满意地使用它。
Due to the very small print in exercises etc., some pages seemed a little crowded and hard to read (but this might, be a function of the age of the reviewer). Certain illust, rations (like 4.6 on page II), terms (like supremum on page 392; incidentally, a printing error here unfortunately makes the likelihood ratio always equal to one), and definitions (like event class on page 60) seemed too difficult or out of place, but again the student, must be the final judge. The terms mean and variance are llsed before they are formally defined in Chapter 6, beginning on page 161. They would have found it convenient to have introduced those names earlier and it, mnst be very distressing to the students during some of t, hose discussions (for illustrations, see pages 110, 114, 140, and 157). I am certain that the last remark about generating random variables on page 125 was also confusing; frankly, I find that a simple F-1 is a very convenient tool to use even though there might be other less time-consuming methods and I would not have worried the student. While I can find certain parts of the presentation with which I disagree, this text is a welcome alternative in this important area. Depending on the local situation, it certainly should be considered for that first course in probability and mathematical statistics. Many (not all, I hope) will use it very satisfactorily.
