Imagine computer software that can find expectations of arbitrary random variables, calculate variances, invert characteristic functions, perform transformations of random variables, calculate probabilities, derive order statistics, find Fisher's Information, derive symbolic (exact) maximum likelihood estimators, perform automated moment conversions, ... . Imagine that this software is wonderfully easy to use, and yet so powerful that it can find corrections to mainstream reference texts, and solve new problems in seconds. Then, imagine a book on mathematical statistics that uses that software to bring mathematical statistics to life, with hundreds of live examples, animations and illustrations ...
