"Often referred to as distribution-free methods, nonparametric methods do not rely on assumptions that the data are drawn from a given probability distribution. With an emphasis on Wilcoxon rank methods that enable a unified approach to data analysis, this book presents a unique overview of robust nonparametric statistical methods.
