From the publisher

What gives statistics its unity as a science? Stephen Stigler sets forth the seven foundational ideas of statistics--a scientific discipline related to but distinct from mathematics and computer science. Even the most basic idea-- aggregation , exemplified by averaging--is counterintuitive. It allows one to gain information by discarding information, namely, the individuality of the observations.
