Two English statisticians have compiled this list of terms, abbreviations, famous probabilists and statisticians that is accessible to experts, beginners and practitioners in all fields that use statistical methods and probability. It is very current and competitive with other dictionaries on this topic including the one that Cambidge University Press puts out. A nice feature of the handy paperback book is its low price. Published in 2002 it is the most current dictionary of its type and includes terms from computational statistics and operations research. So you will find terms like simplex methods and figures from operations research like George Dantzig in addition to famous statisticians such as R. A. Fisher and probabilists like Markov and Kolmogorov. It also contains many names of statistical societies, software packages and professional journals and their acronyms.

Couldn't put it down. Great writing style and spiritual message.

After having become interested in eating more soy products, I was delighted to find this cookbook. Discover Tofu is an excellent way to introduce tofu to ones diet. Thank you.

What would you do if you lived in a world where every year the winter became colder, the food more scarce, and wild bands of marauding warriors came to steal your children, food, and lives. This is the world of Marika as she struggles to find her place in it. Witches, wizards, and warriors - All the making's of a great tale. I highly recommend this and all the books in the darkwar trilogy.

A truly informative, lovely cookbook with great pictures, and most importantly, terrific recipes. The author has a real fondness for the region and knows her food. Cooking out of this book takes me back to one of my favorite regions of the world. A real winner!

This book is great! It helps you develop your rhythmic improvisation. This book shows so much teqnique! This is one of Mel Bay's greatest drum book titles! This really helps you develop your rock style for todays rock drumming. This book helps you develop many rock variations, it's great. I really love this book! I suggest you try it, you'll definitley like it as much as me!

Full of interesting facts, this an in-depth book on the complexities of the Dutch language that is still a good fun read. Not one to read front to back, more one to dip into now and then so you can "gosh! now I get it!" Even better if you also speak German, as it tips you off about some of the errors you are likely to make as an English-German speaker learning Dutch. Doesn't shirk at giving you the ever-useful info about swearing and euphemisms! I keep it in ...and Dutch and English speakers alike come out of it looking enlightened (in more than one way, that is...)

This book is a must for any cook who loves to read cookbooks in their spare time. All of the recipes are straight-forward, yet most of them are very unique combinations ie. walla-walla sweet onion jam, cheddar cheese soup with peppered bacon and ale. Each page also has a bit of Northwest history and accompanying photos, which are quite enjoyable. As Seattle-ite I can vouch that these recipes really do use locally available ingredients, but I think that cooks everywhere would enjoy and adapt these recipes. Only drawback is that pictures and text are black and white only.

The best solo adventure of all time! D&D veteran David Cook creates a grim, compelling tale of capture and desperate escape; as a lone thief and pariah, you'll have to survive an horrific gauntlet of ice caverns filled with lizard men, evil priests, and worse... after you've tortured yourself for a couple weeks and you actually beat the thing, you can turn your appreciation to the multi-player section and turn this one loose on the PCs. :) For levels 1-3.

This book by first-time author Larry Farris is a definite read for anyone interested in the sociological perspective of small town ministry. Pastor Farris has real-life examples and writes in a thoroughly readable and enjoyable prose. I highly recommend this book to anyone who care about small towns, churches, and the people that are involved with them. I hope to read more from Mr. Farris.
