“This book attempts to explain long used approaches, illustrate how existing software can be used to solve survey problems, and develop some specialized software where needed with a focus on related practitioners (i.e. students, survey statisticians, and other survey practitioners). … this book may be useful to students, survey statisticians, social scientists and other survey practitioners. The book may also serve as a useful reference for other professionals engaged in the conduct of sample surveys.” (Sada Nand Dwivedi, ISCB News, iscb.info, Issue 67, June, 2019)
