Abstract
These pages contain material I have tried to convey, in a course given occasionally, to a Caltech audience composed mostly of graduate students. The idea behind the course was to introduce students to the ideas and attitudes that underlie the statistical modeling of physical, chemical, biological systems. To provide a sufficient minimum to begin the repair of total ignorance, to get one started, to avoid embarrassing moments at an oral qualifying examination, perhaps. This little book might be titled "An Introduction to an Introduction to . . ." The student who wishes to go deeper will find much that is rich in the classic texts and essays listed under References.
