Shape and Shape Theory by D G Kendall
Pioneered by David Kendall, the statistical theory of shape is an emerging area generating considerable interest for statisticians, engineers, and computer scientists. Co--written by Dr. Kendall, this volume presents a coherent theory of shape developed from Kendalla s own approach known as static and kinematic theory."The potential value that his volume should have to researchers in many areas for years to come." (Short Book Reviews, August 2000)
"I would like to conclude this review by strongly recommending that geodists have this book on desk within ready reach of hands" (Journal of Geodesy, Vol. 75, 2001)
"...a mathematical jewel..." (Mathematical Reviews, 2003g)
