Abstract
BOOKS on statistics are apt to be either shallow or obscure. A book which avoided both these dangers and yet covered the whole field would have to be a very long book ; but it is possible to achieve both profundity and perspicuity by restricting the scope of the book to the discussion of one technique, and this device has been adopted in a new book by D. J. Finney.
