Explains the conceptual foundations of statistical analyses (particularly inferential statistics), emphasizing the research context. Teaches students how to ``work the formulas'' by presenting cleary
This book is aimed at two kinds of readers: firstly, people working in or near mathematics, who are curious about continued fractions; and secondly, senior or graduate students who would like an exten
The chemistry of crown ethers and crown-like compounds is about twenty-five years old. It is a good time not only to assess the development of the field but also to map out where crown-compound resear
