520    "Modern astronomical research is beset with a vast range 
       of statistical challenges, ranging from reducing data from
       megadatasets to characterizing an amazing variety of 
       variable celestial objects or testing astrophysical 
       theory. Yet most astronomers still use a narrow suite of 
       traditional statistical methods. Linking astronomy to the 
       world of modern statistics, this volume is a unique 
       resource, introducing astronomers to advanced statistics 
       through ready-to-use code in the public-domain R 
       statistical software environment"--|cProvided by
