The authors start with the basics of statistics and Bayesian statistics, then cover order statistics, "goodness of fit," rank tests, relevant designed experiments, categorical data, estimating distribution functions and density, regressions beyond the linear, curve fitting, wavelets, bootstrapping, the Em algorithm, statistical learning, and nonparametric Bayes.
The rank tests have the further advantage that they are independent of the underlying probability distributions from which the data was generated.
