Abstract: This paper offers a brief introduction to Frontiers in Statistics by Jianqing Fan and H. L. Koul in a chapter-by-chapter way, so that the reader might be caused to get interested in studying it. This paper also offers three suggestions for a better understanding of the book, namely, the calculation of covariance matrixes, especially those of sparse covariance should be familiarized with; patience should be exercised in reading long academic papers; and the ability of doing dynamic equivalent translation should be possessed.
