The volume stands as a clear introduction to Bayesian statistical decision theory. A second book, \u003ci\u003eBayesian Inference in Statistical Analysis\u003c\/i\u003e, examines the application and relevance of Bayes' theorem to problems that occur during scientific investigations, where inferences must be made regarding parameter values about which little is known. Key aspects of the Bayesian approach are discussed, including the choice of prior distribution, the problem of nuisance parameters, and the role of sufficient statistics. \u003ci\u003eApplied Statistical Decision Theory\u003c\/i\u003e covers the development of analytic techniques in the field of statistical decision theory. This classic book was first published in the 1960s.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e \u003cb\u003eMorris DeGroot\u003c\/b\u003e (now deceased) was a great statistician and gentleman of the 20th Century. Says friend and coworker Joseph B. (\"Jay\") Kadane of DeGroot in the Foreword. He was an institutional builder, as founder of the Statistics Department at Carnegie Mellon University and as first Executive Editor of Statistical Science. He was a wonderful colleague and friend, always ready for a chat about principles, a research problem, a departmental problem, a reference, or personal advice. \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eGeorge E. P. Box\u003c\/b\u003e, PhD, is Ronald Aylmer Fisher Professor Emeritus of Statistics and Industrial Engineering at the University of Wisconsin, Madison.
