Categorical Data Analysis (Wiley Series in Probability and Statistics)Wiley-Interscience 2002-07-22 ISBN: 0471360937 734 pages pdf 5MB 'Amstat News asked three review editors to rate their top five favorite books in the September 2003 issue. Categorical Data Analysis was among those chosen.A valuable new edition of a standard reference."A 'must-have' book for anyone expecting to do research and/or applications in categorical data analysis."-Statistics in Medicine on Categorical Data Analysis, First EditionThe use of statistical methods for categorical data has increased dramatically, particularly for applications in the biomedical and social sciences. Responding to new developments in the field as well as to the needs of a new generation of professionals and students, this new edition of the classic Categorical Data Analysis offers a comprehensive introduction to the most important methods for categorical data analysis.Designed for statisticians and biostatisticians as well as scientists and graduate students practicing statistics, Categorical Data Analysis, Second Edition summarizes the latest methods for univariate and correlated multivariate categorical responses. Readers will find a unified generalized linear models approach that connects logistic regression and Poisson and negative binomial regression for discrete data with normal regression for continuous data. Adding to the value in the new edition.

Urban America and its PolicePublisher: University Press of Colorado 2003-06-26 ISBN: 0870817264 PDF 192 pages 4.11 MBIn "Urban America and Its Police," Harlan D. Hahn and Judson L. Jeffries present a broad and comparative overview of urban policing in the United States. Synthesizing their own research with information from an eclectic array of sources—seminal social science studies of urban police departments, government documents, reports from organizations such as the American Civil Liberties Union, and think tank monographs—they present a nationally oriented and historically informed understanding of the diverse and often conflicting roles police officers play on city streets. Hahn and Jeffries also demonstrate the ways in which race and ethnicity have influenced United States law enforcement since the creation of the nation's first police force. Ultimately, the authors call for a renewed emphasis on the social service dimension of police work—a shift they argue would reduce crime and enhance community support for those who are sworn to project and serve.

The Sports Franchise Game: Cities in Pursuit of Sports Franchises, Events, Stadiums, and ArenasPublisher: University of Pennsylvania Press 1995-04-01 ISBN: 081223121X JPG 103 pages 274 KBPower, prestige, and millions of dollars--these are the stakes in the sports franchise game.

Rigorous research, fascinating interviews with major players, stories behind the headlines, and an insider's perspective converge in this rare view of the business side of professional sports.

An Introduction to Echo Analysis: Scattering Theory and Wave Propagation (Springer Monographs in Mathematics)Springer ISSN 1846288517 2008-05-13 PDF 350 Pages 1.2 Mb The use of various types of wave energy is an increasingly promising, non-destructive means of detecting objects and of diagnosing the properties of quite complicated materials. An analysis of this technique requires an understanding of how waves evolve in the medium of interest and how they are scattered by inhomogeneities in the medium. These scattering phenomena can be thought of as arising from some perturbation of a given, known system and they are analysed by developing a scattering theory.This monograph provides an introductory account of scattering phenomena and a guide to the technical requirements for investigating wave scattering problems. It gathers together the principal mathematical topics which are required when dealing with wave propagation and scattering problems, and indicates how to use the material to develop the required solutions.Both potential and target scattering phenomena are investigated and extensions of the theory to the electromagnetic and elastic fields are provided. Throughout, the emphasis is on concepts and results rather than on the fine detail of proof; a bibliography at the end of each chapter points the interested reader to more detailed proofs of the theorems and suggests directions for further reading.Aimed at graduate and postgraduate students and researchers in mathematics and the applied sciences, this book aims to provide the newcomer to the field with a unified, and reasonably self-contained, introduction to an exciting research area and, for the more experienced reader, a source of information and techniques.

The Man-Eating Tigers of SundarbansPublisher: Houghton Mifflin Books for Children 2001-02-26 ISBN: 0618077049 JPG 64 pages 4.55 MBAlong the Bay of Bengal between India and Bangladesh stretches a strange and beautiful flooded forest. This enchanted forest is called the Sundarbans Tiger Reserve and is home to more tigers than anywhere else on earth. There are said to be some five hundred tigers here. Nowhere else do tigers live in a mangrove swamp. And nowhere else do healthy tigers routinely hunt people. Yet about three hundred people are killed each year by the tigers of Sundarbans. No one knows why. The Man-Eating Tigers of Sundarbans is a mystery story, but it is also a story about science and myth, about people and tigers, and about different ways of seeing the natural world. Sy Montgomery traveled to Sundarbans searching for answers to the mysteries surrounding these tigers. She listened to what scientists had to say about the unusual tiger behavior and to the stories of the villagers who revere the very animals who hunt them.

The Great Texas Banking Crash: An Insider's AccountPublisher: University of Texas Press 1996-02-22 ISBN: 0292727917 JPG 8 pages 0.96 MBDuring the decade from 1982 to 1992, Texas banks failed at a rate unprecedented in United States history. In all, 506 Texas commercial banks failed, including seven of the ten largest banks in Texas. In this fascinating insider's account, Joseph M. "Jody" Grant, former chairman and chief executive officer of Texas American Bancshares, Inc. of Fort Worth (the seventh largest), tells the story of the collapse of Texas' major banks. He vividly re-creates the three-year struggle to save his own organization, Texas American Bancshares. A crucial player in Grant's story is the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Encouraged by the FDIC to pursue a daring merger with San Antonio's National Bancshares of Texas, Grant and his fellow bankers endured months of agonizing negotiations which culminated in a decision by the FDIC that had devastating and costly consequences. This sobering account makes a compelling case against the FDIC's handling of Texas' financial crisis. Grant's book will be thought-provoking reading for everyone in the financial community, as well as for students of Texas history and of business and government relations.
