Abstract: 

The papers in this book are intended to evaluate the achievements of Chinese statisticians, in both the theoretical and applied fields, during the ten-year period beginning from the late seventies. These papers provide selected information about this question, rather than a complete picture of statistics in China. Yet we strongly believe that the articles presented here will enable the reader to grasp some unique features of the development and nature of statistics in China.
