Abstract
In order to make the present volume as self-contained as possible, this chapter provides a concise summary of the main results from statistics. However, it is assumed that the reader has already had a course in statistics including regression analysis. Chapter 2 is just meant as a service to the reader. When examining later chapters he may wish to refer back to one of the sections in this chapter. Furthermore, some familiarity with calculus and matrix algebra is a sufficient prerequisite.
