Introduction to Statistical Limit Theory

Helping readers develop a good understanding of asymptotic theory, this text provides a thorough yet accessible treatment of common modes of convergence and their related tools used in statistics. The author explains as much of the background material as possible and incorporates detailed proofs and explanations of the results. The text includes many end-of-chapter exercises and experiments that range in level of difficulty from easy to advanced. Numerous examples illustrate the application of asymptotic theory to modern statistical problems. A solutions manual is available upon qualified course adoption.
