Description
The scientist searching for structure in large systems of data finds inspiration in his own discipline, support from modern computing, and guidance from statistical models. Because large sets of data are likely to be complicated, and because so many approaches suggest themselves, a codification of techniques of analysis, regarded as attractive paths rather than as straitjackets, offers the scientist valuable directions to try. The literature on discrete multivariate analysis, although extensive, is widely scattered. This book brings that literature together in an organized way.
