This book takes us on an exhilarating journey through the
revolution in data analysis following the introduction of
electronic computation in the 1950s. Beginning with
classical inferential theories - Bayesian, frequentist,
Fisherian - individual chapters take up a series of
influential topics: survival analysis, logistic
regression, empirical Bayes, the jackknife and bootstrap,
random forests, neural networks, Markov chain Monte
Carlo, inference after model selection, and dozens more.
The distinctly modern approach integrates methodology and
algorithms with statistical inference. The book ends with
speculation on the future direction of statistics and
data science.
