Just ordered that one too :-).

I am actually most interested non-parametric statistics, especially to "reformulate" as many statistical tests as possible using a small number of robust primitives (like the bootstrap.) More pointers in that direction would be very welcome :-)

Tangent to a tangent: The other most enjoyable stats book I have found is "Statistical Modeling: A Fresh Approach" http://www.mosaic-web.org/go/StatisticalModeling/
