Reviews
Publisher Synopsis
"The book is well written. It assumes a knowledge of statistics, but many of the ideas and techniques can be used by a nonstatistician. As a handbook for XTREMES, it is excellent, and I recommend it highly." -Computing Reviews "The present book is a valuable contribution to the various theoretical and applied problems in the area of extreme value theory...a pleasure to read." -Statistics & Decisions "The book is however much more than a manual for the program and it would provide an excellent introduction to the subject for any statistician looking for a practical introduction to the subject of extreme values." - J. Time Series Analysis "With general statistics software, appropriate tools for the analysis of real extreme value problems are rarely provided. XTREMES excellently fills this gap in the statistics software market." -Computational Statistics "For a practitioner from industry, insurance, or finance who is less concerned with understanding the underlying probability and more interested in applications, this new book will be a good buy." -JASA "The book can be highly recommended to all who deal with statistics of extremes." - Zeitschrift fur Mathematik Read more...
