Ebook Download | Plane Answers to Complex Questions: The Theory of Linear Models | This book is very suitable for graduate students wishing to learn some linear algebra. It covers a lot of more recent topics such as mixed models.
While Dr. Christensen's writing is very clear, a lot more examples and/or exercises would definitely help to illustrate his points. For example, in section 2.4 he claims that "it's immaterial to use MSE or MLE [as] they will lead to identical confidence intervals and tests for sigma^2". This can be easily made as an exercise in chapter 3, where he discusses hypothesis testing. At least so that the students can see his point well. Moreover, I would appreciate it if he put like 5 or 6 exercises that make the students integrate every aspect they learned so far (like section 4.3 exercises). Practically, everything past chapter 9 is theoretical. I would appreciate it if he puts examples and/or exercises.
