Summary

"Since publication of the first edition in 1992, the field of survey sampling has grown considerably. This new edition of Survey Sampling: Theory and Methods has been updated to include the latest research and the newest methods. The authors have undertaken the daunting task of reviewing the sampling literature of the past decade to provide a research reference. Starting with the unified theory, the authors explain the subsequent developments. In fact, even the most modern innovations of survey sampling, both methodological and theoretical, have found a place in this concise volume."--BOOK JACKET.
