TLDR
This book discusses the fundamental properties of copulas and some of their primary applications, which include the study of dependence and measures of association, and the construction of families of bivariate distributions.
Abstract
The study of copulas and their role in statistics is a new but vigorously growing field. In this book the student or practitioner of statistics and probability will find discussions of the fundamental properties of copulas and some of their primary applications. The applications include the study of dependence and measures of association, and the construction of families of bivariate distributions. This book is suitable as a text or for self-study.
