Robust statistics and the design of experiments are two of the fastest growing fields in contemporary statistics. Up to now, there has been very little overlap between these fields. This is the first book to link these two areas by studying the influence of the design on the efficiency and robustness of robust estimators and tests. The classical approaches of experimental design and robust statistics are introduced before the areas are linked, and the author shows that robust statistical procedures profit by an appropriate choice of the design and that efficient designs for a robust statistical analysis are more applicable.
