Sampling and Estimation from Finite Populations is a comprehensive and up-to-date reference on survey sampling and its applications, presenting the latest advances in the field. The book aims to demonstrate that sampling theory is a living discipline with a broad scope, covering various topics and methodologies.
The book begins with a historical overview of survey sampling, providing insights into its development and evolution. It then delves into the fundamental concepts of population, sample, and estimation, discussing simple and systematic designs, stratification, sampling with unequal probabilities, balanced sampling, cluster and two-stage sampling, and other sampling techniques.
In addition to these core topics, the book covers various advanced topics such as spatial sampling, coordination in repeated surveys, and multiple survey frames. It also includes sections on post-stratification and calibration on marginal totals, calibration estimation, estimation of complex parameters, variance estimation by linearization, and much more.
One of the key strengths of Sampling and Estimation from Finite Populations is its comprehensive coverage of the theory and practice of survey sampling. The book discusses the foundation of inference in survey sampling, particularly the model-based and design-based frameworks. It reviews the problems of application of the theory into practice and provides practical insights and solutions for survey practitioners.
Furthermore, the book deals with the treatment of non-sampling errors, which are a significant concern in survey research. It explores a range of topics, from the problems of coverage to the treatment of non-response, and offers practical strategies for minimizing these errors and improving the accuracy and reliability of survey results.
The book is written in a clear and accessible style, making it suitable for methodologists, researchers, survey agencies, advanced undergraduate and graduate students in social science, statistics, and related fields. It includes real-world examples, applications, and a large set of exercises with solutions, allowing readers to apply the theoretical concepts and methodologies discussed in the book to their own research and practice.
Overall, Sampling and Estimation from Finite Populations is an excellent resource for anyone interested in survey sampling and its applications. It provides a comprehensive and up-to-date review of the theory and practice of survey sampling, covering a wide range of topics and providing practical insights and solutions for researchers and practitioners alike.
