Sir David Cox is one of the seminal statistical thinkers of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. In this selection of his work, Professor Cox reviews his most influential and interesting papers published before 1993. Each paper is the subject of a candid commentary written especially for this collection. In these he describes the context in which the papers arose and their subsequent influence. He also identifies avenues for future research. Organized in two volumes and grouped by theme, the papers and commentaries provide excellent coverage of many of the most significant advances in statistics in recent times.

Reviews & endorsements
"These handsomely produced volumes reprint 86 of the more important papers of one of the more important statisticians of the past century. David Cox's extraordinary breadth is strongly represented here. The style is distinctive: the ideas are at once clearly expressed and at the same time deep and revealing to even experts. A student could do well to adopt these volumes as a major part of a graduate cirriculum!"
Sankhya: The Indian Journal of StatisticsSee more reviews"Professors Hand and Herzberg should be thanked for the efforts which have culminated with the publication of these two volumes...What makes this work of special value is David Cox's willingness to contribute commentaries on the papers."
