"The powerful methods of data analysis will be of importance to scientists and statisticians. Although the emphasis is on the analysis of data, theoretical developments make the book suitable for a graduate statistical course on multivariate analysis. Topics covered include principal components analysis, discriminant analysis, cluster analysis, and the analysis of spatial data
S-PLUS programs for the forward search are available on a Web site." "This book is a companion to Atkinson and Riani's Robust Diagnostic Regression Analysis, of which the reviewer for The Journal of the Royal Statistical Society wrote, "I read this book, compulsive reading such as it was, in three sittings.""--Jacket
