It is difficult to imagine that the statistical analysis ofcompositional data has been a major issue of concern for more than100 years. It is even more difficult to realize that so manystatisticians and users of statistics are unaware of the particularproblems affecting compositional data, as well as their solutions.The issue of ''spurious correlation, as the situation was phrasedby Karl Pearson back in 1897, affects all data that measures partsof some whole, such as percentages, proportions, ppm and ppb. Suchmeasurements are present in all fields of science, ranging fromgeology, biology, environmental sciences, forensic sciences,medicine and hydrology. This book presents the history and development of compositionaldata analysis along with Aitchisons log-ratio approach.
