This timely book, A Matrix Handbook for Statisticians, provides a comprehensive, <br />
encyclopedic treatment of matrices as they relate to both statistical concepts <br />
and methodologies. Written by an experienced authority on matrices and <br />
statistical theory, this handbook is organized by topic rather than mathematical <br />
developments and includes numerous references to both the theory behind the <br />
methods and the applications of the methods. A uniform approach is applied to <br />
each chapter, which contains four parts: a definition followed by a list of <br />
results; a short list of references to related topics in the book; one or more <br />
references to proofs; and references to applications. The use of extensive <br />
cross-referencing to topics within the book and external referencing to proofs <br />
allows for definitions to be located easily as well as interrelationships among <br />
subject areas to be recognized.<br />
