Summary: Not what I expected
Comment: I purchased STATISTICS IN THE 21 CENTURY because of a recommendation from a statistics listserv for which I subscribe. I thought this monograph would help me with my undergraduate teaching duties. Well, it didn't. Thus, if that's your objective, don't buy it.

If you're interested in seeking the board range of directions for applied statistics, this is your book. In my disappointment in realizing that this book is not what I thought it would be, I read it anyway. It is quite well written. For me, I thought I would only be interested in the social science section, but I found some of the Engineering and Physicial Science chapters helpful. All the chapters are quite insightful.

The only disappointing aspect of the monograph was the incomplete information on the autocorrelation debate for time series data. I wanted to know more.

Otherwise, it is a nice set of statistical readings.
