There should be a section among general books, in addition to the textbooks that are filed by course. You can not the titles, even if the books are sealed in plastic. Anything that has been in print for decades is good (for something). b) Look for some of those titles in a good college library, and go to the shelves where you would find them. Browse the contents to see what you are looking for. - Then you could ask a stat-group for informed opinions, if you don't get titles in response to this first request. Further, online: you could do a http://groups.google.com search of the stat-groups. You could go to stat-web pages of people who answer questions in the stat-groups, and look for references and links to references. Hope this helps. -- Rich Ulrich, [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.pitt.edu/~wpilib/index.html ================================================================= Instructions for joining and leaving this list, remarks about the problem of INAPPROPRIATE MESSAGES, and archives are available at http://jse.stat.ncsu.edu/ =================================================================
