Professors Marshall and Olkin, coauthors of papers on inequalities, multivariate distributions, and matrix analysis, are about to celebrate 50 years of collaborations. Their basic book on majorization has promoted awareness of the subject, and led to new applications in such fields as economics, combinatorics, statistics, probability, matrix theory, chemistry, and political science.
"On the whole, this volume is an excellent compendium on the subject of statistics to serve as a textbook for a number of courses." (Zentralblatt fuer Mathematik)
