Textbook
There is no textbook for this course. It is taken straight out from A First Course in the Theory of Linear Statistical Models by Myers and Milton, so if you can get your hands on a copy (it is out of print) it would be useful, but not critical. There is a copy on reserve at the Maths library, but the lecture slides are intended to be self-contained.
