The July 2014 issue of the International Association of Survey Statisticians (IASS) newsletter 'The Survey Statistician' is now available at: http://isi-iass.org/home/services/the-survey-statistician/
Besides our regular features of country reports on activities related to survey methodology, Table of Contents of relevant journals and announcements for upcoming conferences, we also have three special articles in each issue under: 'New and Emerging Methods', 'Ask the Expert 'and 'Book/Software Review'.
The current issue contains an article by L. Zhang on ' Data Integration', a response to the question 'What are the conditions under which various survey designs that do not use probability samples might still be
useful for making inferences to a larger population?' by J.M. Brick, and a book review from D. Haziza of the book 'Statistical Methods for Handling Incomplete Data' by J.K. Kim and J. Shao.
