This is from The Advanced Theory of Statistics, Volume II, by Maurice G. Kendall, page 270.
"In fact, we shall seek for the test which, while obeying (26.1), minimizes the risk of accepting Ho when an alternative hypothesis H1 is true and Ho according is false."
What's the matter with M.G. Kendall? What is this business with accepting Ho? I doubt that Kendall ever took a statistics class from Professor Afonso.
