    The author discusses recent results concerning statistical maps [\textit{E. Beltrametti} and \textit{S. Bugajski}, J. Math. Phys. 38, 3020--3030 (1997; Zbl 0874.06009); \textit{S. Bugajski}, Intern. J. Theor. Phys. 35, 2229--2244 (1996; Zbl 0872.60003); \textit{S. Bugajski, K.-E. Hellwig} and \textit{W. Stulpe}, Rep. Math. Phys. 41, 1--11 (1998; Zbl 1026.60501)]. A statistical map is defined to be an affine map between two simplexes of probability measures satisfying a measurability condition. The author describes the closely related concepts of Markov kernels, dual statistical maps, statistical functions and effect-valued measures. He proves that a family of statistical maps possesses a natural product that is a statistical map.NEWLINENEWLINEPart II, cf. Math. Slovaca 51, No. 3, 343--361 (2001; Zbl 1088.81022).
