'The style is distinctive: the ideas are at once clearly expressed and at the same time deep and revealing to even experts. A student could do well to adopt these volumes as a major part of the graduate curriculum!' Sankhya: The Indian Journal of Statistics 'What makes this work of special value is David Cox's willingness to contribute commentaries on the papers ... I think many will be pleased to have these two volumes on their bookshelves.' Publication of the International Statistical Institute '... David is a statistician's statistician. It is too early to speak of these volumes as a fitting memorial but there is no doubt that they will stand when all our work has become part of that history which David has done so much to create.'
