+LONG_DESCRIPTION = """
+hyppo (**HYP**othesis Testing in **P**yth**O**n, pronounced "Hippo") is an open-source
+software package for multivariate hypothesis testing. We decided to develop hyppo for
+the following reasons:
+
+* With the increase in the amount of data in many fields, hypothesis testing for high
+dimensional and nonlinear data is important
+* Libraries in R exist, but their interfaces are inconsistent and most are not available
+in Python
+
+hyppo intends to be a comprehensive multivariate hypothesis testing package and runs on
+all major versions of operating systems. It also includes novel tests not found in other
+packages. It is quick to install and free of charge. If you need to use multivariate
+hypothesis testing, be sure to give hyppo a try!"
