Italian Economic Papers
This third volume in the Italian Economic Papers series collects the work of lesser-known economists who were active in Italy primarily between the two World Wars. It will appeal to academics in the fields of economic theory, economic history, and public finance.

Total Science
In A Total Science, Jean-Guy Prévost charts how Italian statistics emerged as a full-fledged discipline, giving rise to a network of university chairs, journals, and other institutions. He focuses on episodes such as the creation of the famous Gini coefficient and the statisticians' participation in Italy's war effort and also analyses the intellectual project to which most statisticians were committed, that of creating a quantitative social science. In doing so he reveals the political and ideological use of the work of statisticians during the Fascist era.
Financial Risk in Insurance
Published with the contribution of the Italian insurance company, INA, this volume contains the invited contributions presented at the 3rd International AFIR Colloquium. In the spirit of actuarial tradition, the colloquium paid attention to the link between the theoretical approach and the operative problems of financial markets and institutions, and insurance companies in particular. The book is thus an important reference work for students and researchers of actuarial sciences and finance, and is also recommended to practitioners with theoretical interests.
Quantization Noise
If you are working in digital signal processing, control or numerical analysis, you will find this authoritative analysis of quantization noise (roundoff error) invaluable. Do you know where the theory of quantization noise comes from, and under what circumstances it is true? Get answers to these and other important practical questions from expert authors, including the founder of the field and formulator of the theory of quantization noise, Bernard Widrow. The authors describe and analyze uniform quantization, floating-point quantization, and their applications in detail. Key features include: • Analysis of floating point round off • Dither techniques and implementation issues analyzed • Offers heuristic explanations along with rigorous proofs, making it easy to understand 'why' before the mathematical proof is given.
Econophysics & Economics of Games, Social Choices and Quantitative Techniques
The combined efforts of the Physicists and the Economists in recent years in analyzing and modelling various dynamic phenomena in monetary and social systems have led to encouraging developments, generally classified under the title of Econophysics. These developments share a common ambition with the already established field of Quantitative Economics. This volume intends to offer the reader a glimpse of these two parallel initiatives by collecting review papers written by well-known experts in the respective research frontiers in one cover. This massive book presents a unique combination of research papers contributed almost equally by Physicists and Economists. Additional contributions from Computer Scientists and Mathematicians are also included in this volume. The book consists of two parts: the first part concentrates on Econophysics problems and the second part stresses on various quantitative issues in Economics. Both parts specialize on frontier problems in Games and Social Choices.
Computational and Mathematical Models in Biology
This book provides the most valuable and updated research on computational and mathematical models in biological systems from influential researchers around the world and contributes to the development of future research guidelines in this topic. Topics include (but are not limited to): modeling infectious and dynamic diseases; regulation of cell function; biological pattern formation; biological networks; tumor growth and angiogenesis; complex biological systems; Monte Carlo methods; Control theory, optimization and their applications
