Because large sets of data are likely to be complicated, and because so many approaches suggest themselves, a codification of techniques of analysis, regarded as attractive paths rather than as straitjackets, offers the scientist valuable directions to try. The literature on discrete multivariate analysis, although extensive, is widely scattered. This book brings that literature together in an organized way. |
