Book Description
It is from the paranormal's multifaceted nature that the title of this book takes its meaning. Throughout its pages we encounter, time and again, talk of a wide variety of dimensions, levels and layers, from social, cultural, psychological and physiological dimensions, to spiritual, mythic, narrative, symbolic and experiential dimensions, and onwards to other worlds, planes of existence and realms of consciousness. The paranormal is, by its very nature, multidimensional. ""Once again, Jack Hunter takes us down the proverbial rabbit hole, here with the grace, nuance and sheer intelligence of a gifted team of essayists, each working in her or his own way toward new theories of history, consciousness, spirit, the imagination, the parapsychological, and the psychedelic. Another clear sign that there is high hope in high strangeness, and that we are entering a new era of thinking about religion, about mind, about us."" -- Jeffrey J. Kripal, author of Authors of the Impossible: The Paranormal and the Sacred.

New Trading Dimensions
Author: Bill M. Williams
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 9780471295419
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 290
Book Description
Händler und erfahrene Privatanleger kommen immer mehr zu dem Schluß, daß die traditionellen Prognosemethoden der fundamentalen oder technischen Analyse offenbar zu widersprüchlichen Ergebnissen kommen. Bei den fundamentalen Analysten geht der Markt eher schwach, bei den technischen Analysten geht er fester. Die Folge von solch gegensätzlichen Signalen ist, daß viele Händler und Anleger sich auf eine Kombination von wissenschaftlicher Theorie und Anlagepsychologie stützen. Bill Williams zeigt hier neue Perspektiven der Marktbeobachtung auf. Er kombiniert Elemente traditioneller technischer Chartmethoden mit Chaostheorie und Psychologie. Das Ergebnis ist ein komplexes, fünfdimensionales Handelsprogramm mit ausführlichen Erläuterungen und Beispielen zu Bereichen wie Fraktalanalyse, Oszillatoren und psychologischen Aspekten. (10/98)

Fractal Dimensions of Networks
Author: Eric Rosenberg
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 303043169X
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 530
Book Description
Current interest in fractal dimensions of networks is the result of more than a century of previous research on dimensions. Fractal Dimensions of Networks ties the theory and methods for computing fractal dimensions of networks to the “classic” theory of dimensions of geometric objects. The goal of the book is to provide a unified treatment of fractal dimensions of sets and networks. Since almost all of the major concepts in fractal dimensions originated in the study of sets, the book achieves this goal by first clearly presenting, with an abundance of examples and illustrations, the theory and algorithms for sets, and then showing how the theory and algorithms have been applied to networks. Thus, the book presents the classical theory and algorithms for the box counting dimension for sets, and then presents the box counting dimension for networks. All the major fractal dimensions are studied, e.g., the correlation dimension, the information dimension, the Hausdorff dimension, the multifractal spectrum, as well as many lesser known dimensions. Algorithm descriptions are accompanied by worked examples, many applications of the methods are presented, and many exercises, ranging in difficulty from easy to research level, are included.

Dimension Estimation and Models
Author: Howell Tong
Publisher: World Scientific
ISBN: 9789810213534
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 240
Book Description
This volume is the first in the new series Nonlinear Time Series and Chaos. The general aim of the series is to provide a bridge between the two communities by inviting prominent researchers in their respective fields to give a systematic account of their chosen topics, starting at the beginning and ending with the latest state. It is hoped that researchers in both communities will find the topics relevant and thought provoking. In this volume, the first chapter, written by Professor Colleen Cutler, is a comprehensive account of the theory and estimation of fractal dimension, a topic of central importance in dynamical systems, which has recently attracted the attention of the statisticians. As it is natural to study a stochastic dynamical system within the framework of Markov chains, it is therefore relevant to study their limiting behaviour. The second chapter, written by Professor Kung-Sik Chan, reviews some limit theorems of Markov chains and illustrates their relevance to chaos. The next three chapters are concerned with specific models. Briefly, Chapter Three by Professor Peter Lewis and Dr Bonnie Ray and Chapter Four by Professor Peter Brockwell generalise the class of self-exciting threshold autoregressive models in different directions. In Chapter Three, the new and powerful methodology of multivariate adaptive regression splines (MARS) is adapted to time series data. Its versatility is illustrated by reference to the very interesting and complex sea surface temperature data. Chapter Four exploits the greater tractability of continuous-time Markov approach to discrete-time data. The approach is particularly relevant to irregularly sampled data. The concluding chapter, by Professor Pham Dinh Tuan, is likely to be the most definitive account of bilinear models in discrete time to date.
