Phillip Good

Phillip I. Good Freygood (born in 1937) is a Canadian-American mathematical statistician. He was educated at McGill University and the University of California at Berkeley.

His chief contributions to statistics are in the area of small sample statistics, including a uniformly most powerful unbiased (UMPU) permutation test for Type I censored data,^{[pub 1]} an exact test for comparing variances, and an exact test for cross-over designs.^{[pub 2]}
