title: Computational Statistics Handbook with MATLAB, Second Edition (Chapman & Hall/CRC Computer Science & Data Analysis)
author:  Wendy L. Martinez 
description: Praise for the First Edition<br />[T]his book is perfectly appropriate as a textbook for an introductory course on computational statistics. It covers many useful topics, which in combination with the well-documented code, make the underlying concepts easy to grasp by the students.  Overall, this is a very nice book to be used in an undergraduate- or Masters-level computational statistics course. It would also prove useful to researchers in other fields that want to learn and implement quickly some advanced statistical techniques.<br />-Journal of Statistical Software, July 2004, Vol. 11<br /><br />I am pleased to see the publication of a comprehensive book related to computational statistics and MATLAB.  [T]his book is ambitious and well written. As a long-time user of MATLAB, I find this book useful as a reference, and thus recommend it highly to statisticians who use MATLAB. The book also would be very useful to engineers and scientists who are well trained in statistics.<br />-Journal of the American Statistical Association, June 2004, Vol. 99, No. 466
