Complete coverage of the prediction approach to survey sampling in a single resource
Prediction theory has been extremely influential in survey sampling for nearly three decades, yet research findings on this model-based approach are scattered in disparate areas of the statistical literature. Finite Population Sampling and Inference: A Prediction Approach presents for the first time a unified treatment of sample design and estimation for finite populations from a prediction point of view, providing readers with access to a wealth of theoretical results, including many new results and, a variety of practical applications. Geared to theoretical statisticians and ... Read more

Reviews for Finite Population Sampling and Inference
"Valliant...is joined...to dispel the perception of dichotomy between mainstream statistics...and survey sampling..." (SciTech Book News, Vol. 24, No. 4, December 2000) "The vast majority of the book is devoted to prediction of a population mean or total, and as such it forms a cohesive and comprehensive treatment of the subject." (Mathematical Reviews, Issue 2001j) "A highly recommended book ... Read more
