This book, which is split into two parts, is about Prof. Zhidong Bai's life and his contributions to statistics and probability. The first part contains an interview with Zhidong Bai conducted by Dr Atanu Biswas from the Indian Statistical Institute, and seven short articles detailing Bai's contributions. The second part is a collection of his selected seminal papers in the areas of random matrix theory, Edgeworth expansion, M-estimation, model selection, adaptive design in clinical trials, applied probability in algorithms, small area estimation, and time series, among others. This book provides an easy access to Zhidong Bai's important works, and serves as a useful reference for researchers who are working in the relevant areas.
