Jack Manly; His Adventures by Sea and Land

". . . the book can serve as a nice manual on the Mathcad software, and it can be very useful to teachers and lecturers looking for new examples to enrich their presentations, which is especially important nowadays with necessity to employ the remote teaching and distance learning."– Technometrics, Volume 62, 2020 - Issue 4"Ochkov (Moscow Power Engineering Institute) packs a lot of information into a single book. The author's purpose is to present 32 "content rich" problems—or studies, as he refers to them—for students to solve. Each study includes areas of mathematics, physics, IT, art, and even creating a website. The narrative part of each study reads well, though a few may be overly long. The main software to be used is Mathcad, with copious examples provided in each study. Some studies are relatively short and fairly accessible, appropriate for use with lower-division (or even advanced high school) students, while others are definitely more advanced and complex. The primary reason to use this book is that it offers a range of problems, providing options that can be tailored to work for a particular class or group situation. This reader applauds the approach of presenting science as a system of interconnected information shared across many disciplines. True, this is not the current approach adopted in many traditional curricula. Yet, instructors could use this book as source material to create tailored, content-rich assignments. This reader can also envision assigning some of the problems to be undertaken in a group setting followed by presentations to the class."– Choice Review, D. B. Mason, Albright College

From reviews of the 1979 edition:
"Here we have perhaps the most articulate of the many fine Australian population geneticists bringing us up to date on the mathematical aspects of his field." -B. S. Weir, William Neal Reynolds Professor of Statistics and Genetics, Director, Bioinformatics Research Center, North Carolina State University
"This book is an excellent source to learn the field for a mathematician or mathematically sophisticated reader." -SIAM Review
"An important reference to anyone interested in the mathematical aspects of population genetics, not only to those actually doing it, but to anyone trying to bridge the now substantial gap between theoretical and experimental population genetics." -The Quarterly Review of Biology
From the reviews of the second edition:

"It is the first of a planned two-volume sequence treating mathematical aspects of population genetics theory and its applications to evolution. … The presentation is very clear and the author confers many of his deep insights to the reader. Therefore, this new edition has very good prospects to serve as the most important introductory text to this active field of research … ." (R. Bürger, Monatshefte für Mathematik, Vol. 145 (1), 2005)

From the reviews of the second edition:

"This book is an extensively revised and expanded second edition … . It presents the principles of mathematical population genetics with an emphasis on evolutionary theory. … Ewens presentation bridges marvellously mathematics and biology. The author effectively copes with the problem that mathematicians want to see technical details, while biologists do not like formalism." (Martin Möhle, Zeitschrift für Angewandte Mathematik und Mechanik, Vol. 85 (1), 2005)
From the reviews of the second edition:

"The book concentrates on the mathematical aspects of population genetics at the graduate or research level. … an excellent summary of the most important results, and very welcome in view of a vast scattered literature. I particularly like the many interesting connections that are made … . Another highlight is an extra chapter on Moran model … . Ewens’ account of mathematical population genetics is unique … . I am very happy to see this second edition in print … ." (Ellen Baake, Mathematical Biosciences, Vol. 197, 2005)
"This is an excellent book on population genetics and evolution placing the emphasis on mathematical and statistical aspects of the theory. … the author successfully connects classical prospective theory with the current retrospective viewpoint of population genetics. … this is an exciting and significant book which reflects the author’s enthusiasm and experience in the field through many decades. It should be read by graduate students and researchers interested in mathematical aspects of population genetics … ." (Günther Karigl, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1060, 2005)
"This book is in a series of texts specializing in interdisciplinary applied mathematics and is scheduled as the first volume of two devoted to population genetics by the same author; it is the second edition of the book first published in 1979. … This book will be of most use to postgraduate researchers … . the book under review admirably sets the scene by including a discussion of the broad theories of population dynamics." (Tony Crilly, The Mathematical Gazette, Vol. 89 (516), 2005)

Building a New Nation

Das deutsche Steuer- und Rentenrecht ist den Anforderungen dieser Zeit
nicht gewachsen. Zwar hat sich die Politik zaghaft an einer Reform des
Steuer- und Rentensystems versucht, eine zukunftstr&auml;chtige L&ouml;sung der Probleme
aber wurde nicht gefunden. Zur Beseitigung dieses Defizits haben die Referenten
des im Juni 2001 vom Heidelberger Steuerkreis veranstalteten Kongresses
"Integriertes Steuer- und Sozialsystem in der Zukunft" eine F&uuml;lle von Reformvorschl&auml;gen
vorgelegt. Ihre in diesem Band ver&ouml;ffentlichten Beitr&auml;ge richten sich auf
Deutschlands Reformf&auml;higkeit &uuml;berhaupt, die Leitbilder eines zuk&uuml;nftigen
Steuer- und Sozialsystems, ein m&ouml;glichst einfaches und zugleich faires
Steuersystem, ein generationengerechtes Rentensystem und die Integration
von Steuer- und Transfersystem.

ORBITING THE MOONS OF PLUTO

From the reviews:
"The book covers most of the important topics in statistical monitoring of clinical trials, including monitoring boundary, conditional power, inference following a group-sequential trial, and adaptive sample size....[and] is valuable for anyone currently involved with or interested in monitoring clinical trials. (T.C. Bailey for Biotmetrics, Issue 63, September 2007)
"The extensive practical experience of the authors is reflected in the presentation of much of the material. This book wouild provide a valuable source of information for statisticians wishing to learn more about issues and methods for the interim monitoring of clinical trials." S.W. Lagakos for Short Book Reviews of the ISI, December 2006
"In summary, this book is an excellent and thorough advanced textbook on the fundamental concepts and properties of group sequential trials literature. ...[T]his book is highly recommended, since it offers a compendium of interesting, sometimes exciting and astonishing results in this area of statistics." Gernot Wassmer for Journal of Biopharmaceutical Statistics, Issue 6, 2007
"This text by Proschan, Lan, and Wittes is very well written and provides thorough and nearly complete coverage of the latest developments in group sequential methods. … I highly recommend this book for any statistician and/or practitioner involved in the analysis of clinical trials. … this is an interesting and well-written book … ." (Michael R. Chernick, Technometrics, Vol. 49 (2), 2007)
"[This] new book gives an excellent overview of issues related to the design and conduct of sequential clinical trials. Researchers working in this area will find this comprehensive book very useful." (Alex Dmitrienko, Biopharmaceutical Network, June 2007)
"This volume presents a comprehensive manual how to perform (repeated) interim analyses in clinical trials in different testing situations. … The book presents a very clear and comprehensive overview of multiple kinds of data monitoring and interim analyses in clinical trials. All topics are illustrated with numerous numerical examples or case studies." (Christina Wunder, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1121 (23), 2007)
"This book is a well-written introduction to interim monitoring and statistical analyses of clinical trials. … This book will be equally useful for graduate students in statistics as well as working statisticians. … Because of the book’s simple style, it will … also provide clinicians and other nonstatisticians with an overview of the main ideas of interim monitoring and the corresponding statistical methods. … Overall, this book will be helpful to anyone involved in the statistical monitoring of clinical trials in drug development." (Somesh Chattopadhyay and Thomas Hammerstrom, Journal of the American Statistical Association, Vol. 103 (481), 2008)
