Probability and Statistics for Physical Sciences by Brian Martin
Probability and Statistics for Physical Sciences, Second Edition is an accessible guide to commonly used concepts and methods in statistical analysis used in the physical sciences. This brief yet systematic introduction explains the origin of key techniques, providing mathematical background and useful formulas. The text does not assume any background in statistics and is appropriate for a wide-variety of readers, from first-year undergraduate students to working scientists across many disciplines.
Prof. Brian R. Martin graduated from Birmingham University with a BSc in Physics and then moved to University College London (1962-1965) to take a PhD in Theoretical Physics. He was a Ford Foundation Fellow at the Institute for Theoretical Physics, Copenhagen University, Copenhagen; a NATO Postdoctoral Fellowship at the Neils Bohr Institute, Copenhagen; and a Research Associate in the Physics Department of Brookhaven National Laboratory, New York. Returning to University College London, he served as a Lecturer, then a Reader and Professor, before becoming Head of Department (1993-2004). Professor Martin retired as Professor Emeritus in October 2005. Dr. Mark F. Hurwitz graduated from Northwestern University with a BS in Mechanical Engineering and then worked as an engineer at Xerox Corporation while earning an MS in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at the University of Rochester. He earned a PhD at Cornell University in Theoretical and Applied Mechanics during an extensive R&D career in the filtration and separations industry at Pall Corporation, where he was inventor of 12 US patents with multiple foreign cognates. Returning to Cornell University, he was an Adjunct Professor in the Robert Frederick Smith School of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering, before moving to administration and becoming the Chief Research Compliance Officer.
