Providing insight into a field of study that is now gaining global importance, this comprehensive treatment of statistical size distributions:
- Describes in-full more than 25 models
- Covers Lorenz curves, multimodal, and multivariate distributions
- Pays specific attention to Italian, and to some degree Japanese sources
- Emphasizes interrelations among various families
- Accounts for more than 200 personal papers, theses, and technical reports by the authors, representing over 40 combined years of study and research
- Opens a formerly European field to the global market
