books for review (in CHANCE)
Among the books I received for review in CHANCE, here are some neither I nor my “usual suspects” had enough time or interest in to review:
R Graphics (second edition) by Paul MurrellBiostatistics: A computing approach by Stewart AndersonAdvanced Bayesian methods for medical test accuracy by Lyle BroemelingIntroduction to Probability with Texas hold’em examples by Frederic Paik Schoenberg- X and the city by John Adam
- Introduction to the Theory of Statistical Inference by Hannelore Liero and Silvelyn Zwanzig
If you would like to review one of those books, send me an email.with some reference/bio and your mailing address. Be warned though that I will decide on a completely arbitrary way (a) on the chosen reviewers and (b) whether or not to publish a proposed review! (The reviewer keeps the book, as a rule.)

“Time series clustering and classification” This tittle matches with my interest and work. I love to share my review.

Still, I think some could be pre-pre-screened!

I suggest you screen the books before assigning reviews. The occasional negative review of a bad book can be enlightening, but overall I think it’s a mistake to review tons of mediocre books! To put it another way, you should not let your book-reviewing decisions be made by the publishers who happen to send you books in the mail.

Right! Some in that list do not look too promising indeed and I will wait for the review to see if the book is a hidden gem, reviewers being warned that I could choose not to publish their review…
