Wasserman's book is definitely the standard for (IMO) a "CliffNotes" version of mathematical statistics at the intro-Ph.D. level.
If you're looking for something like GLMs, GAMs, etc., you're going to want a book on linear models. I've heard good things about Agresti's new intro text but haven't read it. I have read Monahan's text and Christensen's text, but these are -very- technical and can't be absorbed on a quick read. I think one of the texts by Kutner might have what you're looking for, but I'm not sure (don't have a copy myself).
You may want to check out Shalizi's text.
Foundations of Linear and Generalized Linear Models: Be prepared to use your linear algebra. The author is reputable and presents statistics in a geometric perspective (residuals are the projection of the model space onto the data space). It is a very good book.
