On the occasion of the 65th birthday of Professor Madan L. Puri, the authors of this Festschrift pay their tribute to his scientific achievements in statistics.
This volume reflects a selective survey of leading contemprary scientific trends and developments that are significantly related to ideas expressed and pursued in Madan L. Puri's work in statistics and related fields. The wide spectrum of scientific interest which characterizes Professor Puri's scientific activity is thus illuminated.
The choice of papers offered combines fundamental principles with interesting applications, selected for their originality and insight, and for their influence on the modern approach to statistics, probability and related fields.
