Anyone happen to have this book?

  _Robustness in Statistics_, R.L. Launer and G.N. Wilkinson,
  Editors. New York: Academic Press, 1979.

It contains a chapter by George Box called "Robustness in the strategy
of scientific model building."  And the chapter is the source of a
well-known quotation, variously rendered as:

"All models are wrong, some are useful."  (Ugh.  Comma splice.)
"All models are wrong, but some are useful."
"All models are wrong; some models are useful."

What's the correct version?

thanks,
David Epstein
