About this book
With this collections volume, some of the important works of Willem van Zwet are moved to the front layers of modern statistics. The selection was based on discussions with Willem, and aims at a representative sample. The result is a collection of papers that the new generations of statisticians should not be denied. They are here to stay, to enjoy and to form the basis for further research.
The papers are grouped into six themes: fundamental statistics, asymptotic theory, second-order approximations, resampling, applications, and probability. This volume serves as basic reference for fundamental statistical theory, and at the same time reveals some of its history.

Reviews
From the book reviews:
“The volume consists of 28 published articles by Willem. This is a valuable collection and gives historical developments of some of the important work in respective fields. Indeed, this collection will be of interest to research scholars in probability, statistics, and related fields. Willem van Zwet made deep and significant contributions to some important fields of statistics and probability and this volume reveals the impact of his work.” (Technometrics, Vol. 54 (4), November, 2012)
