"This brief monograph attempts to summarize the up-to-date status of the research and development of generalized Weibull distribution. ... This book is a great resource for researchers in theory of statistical distributions, applied statisticians and reliability engineers who want a bird's eye perspective of the most up-to-date synopsis on generalizations and modifications of the Weibull distribution."
