Sommario/riassunto

<b>WILEY-INTERSCIENCE PAPERBACK SERIES</b>   The <b>Wiley-Interscience Paperback Series</b> consists of selected books that have been made more accessible to consumers in an effort to increase global appeal and general circulation. With these new unabridged softcover volumes, Wiley hopes to extend the lives of these works by making them available to future generations of statisticians, mathematicians, and scientists.   "". . .<i>Variance Components</i> is an excellent book. It is organized and well written, and provides many references to a variety of topics. I recommend it to anyone with inte
