Statistical Information and Likelihood: A Collection of Critical Essays by Dr. D. Basu: 45 (Lecture Notes in Statistics) - Softcover
Reseña del editor
It is an honor to be asked to write a foreword to this book, for I believe that it and other books to follow will eventually lead to a dramatic change in the current statistics curriculum in our universities. I spent the 1975-76 academic year at Florida State University in Tallahassee. My purpose was to complete a book on Statistical Reliability Theory with Frank Proschan. At the time, I was working on total time on test processes. At the same time, I started attending lectures by Dev Basu on statistical inference. It was Lehmann's hypothesis testing course and Lehmann's book was the text. However, I noticed something strange - Basu never opened the book. He was obviously not following it. Instead, he was giving a very elegant, measure theoretic treatment of the concepts of sufficiency, ancillarity, and invariance. He was interested in the concept of information - what it meant. - how it fitted in with contemporary statistics. As he looked at the fundamental ideas, the logic behind their use seemed to evaporate. I was shocked. I didn't like priors. I didn't like Bayesian statistics. But after the smoke had cleared, that was all that was left. Basu loves counterexamples. He is like an art critic in the field of statistical inference. He would find a counterexample to the Bayesian approach if he could. So far, he has failed in this respect.
Reseña del editor
This book is a collection of essays on the foundations of Statistical Inference. The sequence in which the essays have been arranged makes it possible to read the book as a single contemporay discourse on the likelihood principle, the paradoxes that attend its violation, and the radical deviation from classical statistical practices that its adoption would entail. The book can also be read, with the aid of the notes as a chronicle of the development of Basu's ideas.
