This book is "must" reading for statisticians and economists who would have an end to interdisciplinary differences stemming from the mutual misunderstanding of terminology, and who see the value of a common forum of discussion. The topics included here illustrate the scope of statistical science in economics and represent current theory and practice. The selections offer discussions on the epistemological quality of economic data, and quantitative approaches applicable to problem solving across a broad spectrumófrom industry to ecology, and in the private and public sectors. Co-published with the International Society of Statistical Science in Economics.
