Vol. 1 Distribution Theory; (1973) Vol. 2 Inference and
Relationship;
(1976) Vol. 3 Design and Analysis, and Time-Series, Charles Griffin,
London. A massive piece of scholarship; heavy going, but many worked
examples.
Siegel, S., 1956.
Nonparametric Statistics for the Behavioural
Sciences, McGraw Hill Kogakusha, Tokyo. Elementary in the extreme; a
mine of information on non-parametric methods. No theory or
justification at all, but many references to the original
papers. Everything illustrated by thoroughly worked examples.
The Fontana Dictionary of
Modern Thought 1976, Eds Bullock, A. &
Stallybrass, O., Fontana Books, London. Filled with interesting things,
most of which have nothing to do with (and are far more fascinating
than) statistics.

1971. Statistics for Physicists, Academic Press,
London. Very concise, readable and fairly rigorous; a number of worked
examples.

theory, autocorrelation, physics of noise, etc.

elementary, very readable, with straightforward (but non-rigorous)
justifications and explanations, many worked and many relevant computer
subroutines (FORTRAN).
