Book excerpt: This is the first book specifically devoted to the topic of stochastic orderings for order statistics. Combining classical and recent results, the work is a comprehensive overview of ordering properties for order statistics and related concepts. Special emphasis is placed on the connections between order statistics and coherent systems, applying results to reliability and survival studies. The work is an excellent reference for advanced undergraduates, graduate students, and researchers in statistics, mathematics, computer science, engineering, and medicine. The book may serve as a supplementary textbook for courses on ordering for order statistics and ordering coherent systems.
