1947. New York, John Wiley & Sons, (1947). Original cloth with gilt spine. No dust jacket. XII,212 pp. Text illustrated. First edition. Wald is considered the founder of statistical sequential analysis and the theory of decision functions. DSB XIV:121.

New York: Wiley & Sons, 1947 First edition. Original navy cloth. Octavo. Sixteen figures, seven tables. A very good copy. Abraham Wald pioneered the science of decision analysis and, in particular, that of sequential decision making. Before Wald, the traditional style of statistical decision was to posit a hypothesis, make a predetermined number of measurements, then make a decision whether to accept or reject the hypothesis.

This idea revolutionized the art of statistical testing and was later developed in the hands of computer scientists into a field known as on-line algorithms. "Most, although not all, of [Wald's] results were summed up in Sequential Analysis (1974). With minor exceptions, the entire contents of this book were obtained by him.
