Title: Not for Engineers
Review: This book provides a good coverage of the very useful bootstrap method. However, post-graduation as an engineer, I find that the method is neither well known nor happily accepted by engineers outside of academia. In the corporate world, bootstrapping is left up to degreed statisticians, as this is what management trusts. As a mechanical engineer, I find that simpler statistical techniques, even if they include broad assumptions, are much more widely accepted. If you are an engineer, leave this up to the statisticians. If you are a statistician, this book is an acceptable source for learning bootstrap.
