Abstract
THIS text-book on statistical methods is intended for the student who is interested in applications, but who at the same time, while not aiming at a complete knowledge of the underlying mathematical theory, would like to get a grasp of the main principles and formulæ. It is thus introductory both to theory and application, and although the discussion sometimes seems more fragmentary than one would wish, the author has welded the two aspects together into a fairly unified course.
