A History of the Central Limit Theorem: From Classical to Modern Probability Theory (Sources and Studies in the History of Mathematics and Physical Sciences) Hans Fischer Springer New York, Sources and Studies in the History of Mathematics and Physical Sciences, 1st Edition., 2010

This Study Aims To Embed The History Of The Central Limit Theorem Within The History Of The Development Of Probability Theory From Its Classical To Its Modern Shape, And, More Generally, Within The Corresponding Development Of Mathematics. The History Of The Central Limit Theorem Is Not Only Expressed In Light Of Technical Achievement, But Is Also Tied To The Intellectual Scope Of Its Advancement. The History Starts With Laplace's 1810 Approximation To Distributions Of Linear Combinations Of Large Numbers Of Independent Random Variables And Its Modifications By Poisson, Dirichlet, And Cauchy, And It Proceeds Up To The Discussion Of Limit Theorems In Metric Spaces By Donsker And Mourier Around 1950. This Self-contained Exposition Additionally Describes The Historical Development Of Analytical Probability Theory And Its Tools, Such As Characteristic Functions Or Moments. The Importance Of Historical Connections Between The History Of Analysis And The History Of Probability Theory Is Demonstrated In Great Detail. With A Thorough Discussion Of Mathematical Concepts And Ideas Of Proofs, The Reader Will Be Able To Understand The Mathematical Details In Light Of Contemporary Development. Special Terminology And Notations Of Probability And Statistics Are Used In A Modest Way And Explained In Historical Context. Introduction -- The Cental Limit Theorem From Laplace To Cauchy: Changes In Stochastic Objectives And In Analytical Methods -- The Hypothesis Of Elementary Errors -- Chebyshev's And Markov's Contributions -- The Way Toward Modern Probability -- Lévy And Feller On Normal Limit Distributions Around 1935 -- Generalizations -- Conclusion: The Central Limit Theorem As A Link Between Classical And Modern Probability Theory.

The Cactus: how a prickly heroine learns to bloom Haywood, Sarah, author Hodder & Stoughton; Two Roads, London, 2018

Meet Susan Green: a prickly, independent woman who has everything just the way she wants it. At forty-five, she thinks her life is perfect: a London flat for one, a job that fulfills her passion for logic, and a personal arrangement that provides cultural and other - more intimate - benefits. There's no room for messy, emotional relationships. Yet following the loss of her mother and, implausibly, the prospect of becoming a mother herself, Susan's life is about to become somewhat messier. This sparkling debut packs a real emotional punch, its heroine as exasperating and delightful as The Rosie Project 's Don Tillman. An uncompromising feminist and a fierce fighter, it's a joy to watch her bloom. THE CACTUS is Sarah Haywood's first novel. tworoadsbooks.com sarahhaywoodauthor.co.uk @tworoadsbooks @SarahxHaywood /TwoRoadsBooks /SarahHaywoodAuthor [insert author picture credit Rachel Ryan] [insert Two Roads logo]

A History of the Central Limit Theorem: From Classical to Modern Probability Theory (Sources and Studies in the History of Mathematics and Physical Sciences) Hans Fischer (auth.) Springer, 10.1007/97, 2011

This study discusses the history of the central limit theorem and related probabilistic limit theorems from about 1810 through 1950. In this context the book also describes the historical development of analytical probability theory and its tools, such as characteristic functions or moments. The central limit theorem was originally deduced by Laplace as a statement about approximations for the distributions of sums of independent random variables within the framework of classical probability, which focused upon specific problems and applications. Making this theorem an autonomous mathematical object was very important for the development of modern probability theory.

What Tom Vanderbilt did for traffic and Brian Wansink did for mindless eating, Jonathan Bloom does for food waste. The topic couldn’t be timelier: As more people are going hungry while simultaneously more people are morbidly obese, American Wasteland sheds light on the history, culture, and mindset of waste while exploring the parallel eco-friendly and sustainable-food movements. As the era of unprecedented prosperity comes to an end, it’s time to reexamine our culture of excess.Working at both a local grocery store and a major fast food chain and volunteering with a food recovery group, Bloom also interviews experts—from Brian Wansink to Alice Waters to Nobel Prize–winning economist Amartya Sen—and digs up not only why and how we waste, but, more importantly, what we can do to change our ways.

Handbook of Causal Analysis for Social Research (Handbooks of Sociology and Social Research) Stephen L. Morgan (auth.), Stephen L. Morgan (eds.) Springer Netherlands, Handbooks of Sociology and Social Research, Handbooks of Sociology and Social Research, 1, 2013

What constitutes a causal explanation, and must an explanation be causal? What warrants a causal inference, as opposed to a descriptive regularity? What techniques are available to detect when causal effects are present, and when can these techniques be used to identify the relative importance of these effects? What complications do the interactions of individuals create for these techniques? When can mixed methods of analysis be used to deepen causal accounts? Must causal claims include generative mechanisms, and how effective are empirical methods designed to discover them? The __Handbook of Causal Analysis for Social Research__ tackles these questions with nineteen chapters from leading scholars in sociology, statistics, public health, computer science, and human development.

Cryoburn (13) (Vorkosigan Saga) Bujold, Lois McMaster Riverdale, NY: Baen Books, Vorkosigan Saga 15, 2010

Kibou-daini is a planet obsessed with cheating death. All well and good, so long as they kept to themselves. But now the Kibou-daini are attempting to franchise out their Fountain of Youth wares to the rest of the galaxy and the Barrayar Galactic Empire is none too pleased with the implications. Cue Miles Vorkosigan, malformed royal troublemaker—but also heir and savior of empire. On Kibou-daini, Miles unearths a war of generations as the oldsters in charge refuse to die and their descendants threaten outright patricide, matricide and maybe even genocide—the prize being a big fat slice of the immortality pie. Bribery, corruption, conspiracy, kidnapping–something is rotten on Kibou-daini, and Miles is up to his neck in trouble and adventure once more.

Barrayaran Imperial Auditor Miles Vorkosigan can hardly disapprove—he’s been cheating death his whole life, on the theory that turnabout is fair play. But when a Kibou-daini cryocorp—an immortal company whose job it is to shepherd its all-too-mortal frozen patrons into an unknown future—attempts to expand its franchise into the Barrayaran Empire, Emperor Gregor dispatches his top troubleshooter Miles to check it out. On Kibou-daini, Miles discovers generational conflict over money and resources is heating up, even as refugees displaced in time skew the meaning of generation past repair. Here he finds a young boy with a passion for pets and a dangerous secret, a Snow White trapped in an icy coffin who burns to re-write her own tale, and a mysterious crone who is the very embodiment of the warning Don’t mess with the secretary. Bribery, corruption, conspiracy, kidnapping—something is rotten on Kibou-daini, and it isn’t due to power outages in the Cryocombs.

Miles Vorkosigan is back! Kibou-daini is a planet obsessed with cheating death. Barrayaran Imperial Auditor Miles Vorkosigan can hardly disapprove—he’s been cheating death his whole life, on the theory that turnabout is fair play. But when a Kibou-daini cryocorp—an immortal company whose job it is to shepherd its all-too-mortal frozen patrons into an unknown future—attempts to expand its franchise into the Barrayaran Empire, Emperor Gregor dispatches his top troubleshooter Miles to check it out. On Kibou-daini, Miles discovers generational conflict over money and resources is heating up, even as refugees displaced in time skew the meaning of generation past repair. Here he finds a young boy with a passion for pets and a dangerous secret, a Snow White trapped in an icy coffin who burns to re-write her own tale, and a mysterious crone who is the very embodiment of the warning Don’t mess with the secretary. Bribery, corruption, conspiracy, kidnapping—something is rotten on Kibou-daini, and it isn’t due to power outages in the Cryocombs. And Miles is in the middle—of trouble! “Fresh, intriguing, and, as always with Lois McMaster Bujold, superb.” —Robert Jordan “It is such a delight to read something by such a good writer, who now seems to be writing at the height of her powers. . . . I really have seldom enjoyed a book so much . . . I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough.” —Diana Wynne Jones “Living breathing characters who inhabit unusual yet believable worlds.” —Jean Auel “Bujold successfully mixes quirky humor with just enough action, a dab of feminist social commentary and her usual superb character development . . . enormously satisfying.” —Publishers Weekly “One of sf’s outstanding talents . . . an outstanding series.” —Booklist “Excellently done . . .
