MarkJ．Schervish世界著名的统计学家。美国统计学会、数理统计学会会士。于1979年获得伊利诺伊大学的博士学位．之后就在卡内基-梅隆大学统计系工作。教授数学、概率、统计和计算金融等课程，现为该系系主任oSchervish在学术上非常活跃．成果颇丰，还因在统计推断和贝叶斯统计方面的基石性工作而闻名。除本书外，他还著有Theoryo，Statisticom和RethinkindtheFoundationsofstatistics。 MorrisH．DeGroot(1931—1989)世界著名的统计学家。生前曾任国际统计学会、美国科学促进会、统计学会、数理统计学会、计量经济学会会士。卡内基-梅隆大学教授，1957年加入该校，‘[966年创办该校统计系。DeGroot在学术上异常活跃和多产，曾发表一百多篇论文。还著有0ptimalStatisticalDecisions和StatisticsandtheLaw。为纪念他的著作对统计教学的贡献，国际贝叶斯分析学会特别设立了DeGroot奖表彰优秀统计学著作。
美国MorrisH.DeGroot、MarkJ.Schervish编著的《概率统计》包括概率论、数理统计两部分，内容丰富完整，适当地选择某些章节，可以作为一学年的概率论与数理统计课程的教材，亦可作为一学期的概率论与随机过程的教材。适合数学、统计学、经济学等专业高年级本科生和研究生用，也可供统计工作人员用作参考书。
