From the reviews of the fourth edition:
"The handbook by I. N. Bronshtein et al. will be a great resource book for statisticians. This book has 745 figures and 142 tables. . This book is well composed, and the items are very precise with excellent references for readers to follow up for more details. . I recommend them strongly to the statistical community. I enjoyed reading . . I am sure both applied and theoretical statisticians will benefit significantly . and hence they should consider having them in their collection."
