The classic reference to Tukey is already out but you can easily get a cite in any modern intro stats book, e.g., Moore and McCabe, Introduction to the Practice of Statistics, or Tanis and Hogg, Probability and Statistical Inference.

Subject: st: box plot reference
Can someone refer me to a well-known statistics book that defines the terms such as "inner fence" and "adjacent value", which Stata uses in its box plots?� I've found some online sources, but my advisor wants something more "real" to cite in my thesis.
thanks,
Chris, user of Stata 9.2
