Multivariate Models and Dependence Concepts on multivariate models, statistical inference, and data analysis contains deep coverage of multivariate non-normal distributions for modeling of binary, count, ordinal, and extreme value response data. It is virtually self-contained, and includes many exercises and unsolved problems.

"Both mathematical and applied researchers in multivariate dependence concepts would benefit from reading this rigorous book, which is designed as graduate level textbook [...] Some notable features of the book include the construction of non-normal multivariate distributions, copulas Fréchet classes, unsolved problems, and exhaustive reference list, and a three-page description of notation and abbreviations [...] The book is a good collection of ideas and formulas [...] certainly valuable for researchers in dependency concepts since it deals with several unsolved problems."
