Professor of Statistics, received
his B.A. in 1958 from Calcutta University, and in 1967 he was awarded a Ph.D.
by Harvard University . He came to Stern
in 1966. He is the author, with Bertram Price, of Regression Analysis by
Example, a successful textbook now in its second edition. This book has been
translated into German and Japanese. He has also written Sensitivity Analysis
in Linear Regression with Ali S. Hadi. His recent book with two other
colleagues from New York University is A Casebook for a First Course in
Statistics and Data Analysis. His current research interests are in
linear models, robust regresssion, censored-value regression problems. He is
actively engaged in trying to improve the teaching of statistics at schools and
universities.
He was a Fulbright Scholar in Kazakhstan at the Kazakhstan Instititute of
Management and Economic Planning. He has worked in the reconstruction of
Official Statistics of the former republics of the Soviet Union. He has been a
visiting professor at Stanford, Sloan School of Mgmt.( MIT), Harvard School of
Public Health, ETH( Zurich), University of Tampere, University of Auckland (NZ).
He was a Fulbright Senior Scholar in Mongolia working with university teachers
of Statistics and the National Statistical Office.
