Abstract
THIS book has done more than any other to popularize the use of modern statistical methods. Thousands of workers have been taught to use statistical machinery without the burdensome necessity of knowing exactly how it works. Six editions have appeared in twelve years, and the number of pages has been steadily increasing. To facilitate reference the numbering of the sections has been kept constant. It would be convenient if the numbers of the sections could be printed at the top of each page. The book maintains its place as the standard work on its subject for the ordinary scientific worker.
