Présentation de l'éditeur:

Professor Karl Pearson and his students and associates, and presenting a summary of the results gained by these methods. These, while increasing somewhat the bulk of the book, have, it is hoped, rendered it more serviceable to investigators. Too much emphasis can hardly be laid on the debt that Biometricians owe toP rofessor Pearson sindefatigable researches in the new science of Biometry especially in the development of Statistical Theory. The publishers, also, of this book are deserving of credit for the courage they have shown in reproducing expensive tables for the use of a still very limited body of statistical workers. Especial attention is called toT able IV, which is an extension ofT able IV of the first edition that was calculated by Professor Frederick H. Safford, and appears to have been the first published table of the normal probability integrals based on the standard deviation. More recently Mr. W. F. Sheppard has published in Biometrika a similar table in which, however, the tabular entries are given to seven places of decimals, while the arguments are given to two decimal places only. In the present table the arguments are subdivided to three places of decimals and with the aid of the table of proportional parts interpolation is easily effected. Especial acknowledgment must be made of assistance received from my friend Mr. F. E. Lutz, who read over the entire manuscript and contributed certain of the numerical examples.
