Strongly recommended!) - [1] It is a very very good textbook of frequentist statistics, well self-organized. [2] The mathematics is precise and clear. [3] Anyone who is interested in the classical statistics may need such an excellent reference at hand. [4] If you decide to buy it, you'd better to check the website http://www.campusi.com/, where sometime you can find a surprise.4 stars (Explains many topics well, where others fail) - This book was the recommended companion to my math stat's required textbook. In almost every case where I didn't understand the explanation given in lecture or in the main textbook, I could understand this book's explanation. I cannot vouch for the entire textbook, but I would not have understood MLE without it. The one star missing is because of the book's tendency to mention earlier sections of the book, which was frustrating since I was using it as a reference. Incidentally, I used this edition, but I didn't pay even close to the price here, so definitely comparison shop. 4 stars (A Good Book) - Overall, this book is a solid introduction to mathematical statistics. Exposition is clear and it fully motivates all concepts. I really only have one complaint: this book omits a few topics. A relatively minor example is the absence of the cumulant generating function. More disturbingly is that it does not have a full discussion of the multi-normal distribution (possibly to avoid some non-trivial linear algebra?). However, being that the book is otherwise quite complete and these topics can be found elsewhere these are rather annoyances than fatal flaws. This is the Textbook Binding version.
