About this book
Reviews
From the reviews of the second edition:
Burnham and Anderson (eschew) P-values completely and (focus) entirely on how to decide when a model or models adequately fits the data. In essence, this is what an ecologist wants to know-how do predictive models work? This simple categorization, however, belies the conceptual richness that Burnham and Anderson present in their book, and its importance." (Ecology)
"Bolstered by a new chapter and an additional 140 pages, this very specialized book is now quite a sizable affair in its second edition … . Subtitled ‘A Practical Information-Theoretic Approach,’ the book is built on the use of the Kullback-Leibler distance approach for multimodel inference. … The enthusiasm of the authors for their subject is apparent from the effort that they have made to extensively revise what already was a very unique book … ." (Technometrics, Vol. 54 (2), May, 2003)
