Book Description
From the author's preface: As a part of my job as editor of the weekly Canmore Leader, I am required each week to write precisely 3,024 characters on my trusy Mac to fill an op-ed space that was probably, in its consept, intended to be home to a thoughtful, reasoned discource on development, tourism, the environment, religion, politics or philosophy in general. Unfortunately, the job came without an instruction manual, and believing feverently that there is far too much weighty discourse going on in the world today, I opted for a somewhat more frivolous approach. You will find no startling insight herein, no sagacious wisdom, no penetrating perspectives. Instead you would be wise to put this book in the bathroom as soon as you buy it. It's that kind of book. And no, this is not what I aspired to be when I grew up.

A Biostatistics Toolbox for Data Analysis
Author: Steve Selvin
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1316473058
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 579
Book Description
This sophisticated package of statistical methods is for advanced master's (MPH) and PhD students in public health and epidemiology who are involved in the analysis of data. It makes the link from statistical theory to data analysis, focusing on the methods and data types most common in public health and related fields. Like most toolboxes, the statistical tools in this book are organized into sections with similar objectives. Unlike most toolboxes, however, these tools are accompanied by complete instructions, explanations, detailed examples, and advice on relevant issues and potential pitfalls - conveying skills, intuition, and experience. The only prerequisite is a first-year statistics course and familiarity with a computing package such as R, Stata, SPSS, or SAS. Though the book is not tied to a particular computing language, its figures and analyses were all created using R. Relevant R code, data sets, and links to public data sets are available from www.cambridge.org/9781107113084.

Mystery and Matter
Author: Michel Remery
Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 9004209425
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 687
Book Description
Most of the scholarship regarding the Dutch monk and architect Dom Hans van der Laan OSB (1904-1991) has been narrowly focused on his architectural theory and projects. The liturgical and theological dimensions have been virtually neglected, though they are vital for a proper understanding of his thought. Through a thorough reading of the original sources, including previously unexplored documents from various archives, this book takes an interdisciplinary approach to Van der Laan’s theory. It brings together the different aspects of his work by studying both the liturgical-theological and architectural elements. On this basis the book offers a synthesis of the way in which Van der Laan was able to link earthly matter to the divine Mystery.
