Product Description
The first edition of this classic book has become the authoritative reference for physicists desiring to master the finer points of statistical data analysis. This second edition contains all the important material of the first, much of it unavailable from any other sources. In addition, many chapters have been updated with considerable new material, especially in areas concerning the theory and practice of confidence intervals, including the important Feldman-Cousins method. Both frequentist and Bayesian methodologies are presented, with a strong emphasis on techniques useful to physicists and other scientists in the interpretation of experimental data and comparison with scientific theories. This is a valuable textbook for advanced graduate students in the physical sciences as well as a reference for active researchers.

Review of Statistical methods in experimental physics June 21, 2008

Very good book. It is very complete. Can be used as a base for almost any statistical analysis in high energy physics. As a PhD student, I use it nearly every day.
Excellent book May 17, 1999

Very good statistics book. Too bad it's out of print and has lousy typesetting. I'd buy another copy if it were re-typeset.
