Riassunto
Presents new and up--dated material on both the underlying theory and the practical methodology of directional statistics, helping the reader to utilise and develop the techniques appropriate to their work. The book is divided into three parts. The first part concentrates on statistics on the circle.

Relazione
"This book provides essential material that is very timely and interesting and provides an excellent treatise on the theory, methodology, and applications of directional and axial statistics." (Technometrics, November 2008)
"This book has been written as a drastic revision and major extension to Statistics of Directional Data. It is a worthy successor to that book and will surely become the definitive reference on this subject are for many years." (Short Book Reviews, Vol. 20, No. 3, December 2000)
