MacLaurin's Physical Dissertations
Springer 2007; US$ 84.99The Scottish mathematician Colin MacLaurin (1698-1746) is known for developing and extending Newton's work in calculus, geometry and gravitation; his "Treatise of Fluxions" was the first exposition of Newton's methods. This book presents these important works in translation, preceded by a translation of MacLaurin's MA dissertation... more...
Handbook of Continued Fractions for Special Functions
Springer 2008; US$ 94.99Special functions are pervasive in all fields of science and industry. The most well-known application areas are in physics, engineering, chemistry, computer science and statistics. Because of their importance, several books and websites (see for instance http: functions.wolfram.com) and a large collection of papers have been devoted to these functions.... more...
Statistics in a Nutshell
O'Reilly Media 2009; US$ 27.99Need to learn statistics as part of your job, or want some help passing a statistics course? Statistics in a Nutshell is a clear and concise introduction and reference that's perfect for anyone with no previous background in the subject. This book gives you a solid understanding of statistics without being too simple, yet without the numbing complexity... more...
The Oxford Handbook of Applied Bayesian Analysis
OUP Oxford 2010; US$ 149.99Bayesian analysis has developed rapidly in applications in the last two decades and research in Bayesian methods remains dynamic and fast-growing. Dramatic advances in modelling concepts and computational technologies now enable routine application of Bayesian analysis using increasingly realistic stochastic models, and this drives the adoption of... more...
Quasi-Monte Carlo Methods in Finance
Diplomica Verlag 2008; US$ 46.93Portfolio optimization is a widely studied problem in finance dating back to the work of Merton from the 1960s. While many approaches rely on dynamic programming, some recent contributions use martingale techniques to determine the optimal portfolio allocation. Using the latter approach, we follow a journal article from 2003 and show how optimal portfolio... more...
Bayesian Decision Analysis
Cambridge University Press 2010; US$ 55.00A textbook and guide to conducting Bayesian decision analysis of sometimes very complex policies and collaborative decisions. more...
Systems of Frequency Curves
Cambridge University Press 1969; US$ 27.00It should be of especial value as a quick reference book for formulae and methods used in fitting frequency curves. more...
General Irreducible Markov Chains and Non-Negative Operators
Cambridge University Press 1984; US$ 38.00Presents the theory of general irreducible Markov chains and its connection to the Perron-Frobenius theory of nonnegative operators. more...
Statistical Analysis of Spherical Data
Cambridge University Press 1987; US$ 65.00This is the first comprehensive, yet clearly presented, account of statistical methods for analysing spherical data. The analysis of data, in the form of directions in space or of positions of points on a spherical surface, is required in many contexts in the earth sciences, astrophysics and other fields, yet the methodology required is disseminated... more...
Introduction to Numerical Analysis
Cambridge University Press 2001; US$ 66.00This textbook provides an introduction to constructive methods that provide accurate approximations to the solution of numerical problems using MATLAB. more...
