The Children of Eve
The Children of Eve is the first book to bring together general material about population and well-being in a single volume. It presents a world history of demographic and economic change that ranges broadly over time and space and which emphasizes the commonality of human experience. The first book to put together material about population and well-being in a single volume Emphasizes the formative population history of Europe and North America over the years since the Middle Ages, and includes discussions of Asia and the southern hemisphere The authors successfully maintain the difficult balance of addressing complex issues in a style that doesn't over-simplify the subject, whilst upholding an approach that is accessible to general readers and students Designed to work as both a stand alone text or a supplement to textbooks in any number of courses
Weak Convergence and Empirical Processes
This book explores weak convergence theory and empirical processes and their applications to many applications in statistics. Part one reviews stochastic convergence in its various forms. Part two offers the theory of empirical processes in a form accessible to statisticians and probabilists. Part three covers a range of topics demonstrating the applicability of the theory to key questions such as measures of goodness of fit and the bootstrap.
Essere ed essere comprate
Nelle società occidentali, il concetto di donna ha subito una radicale ridefinizione: non più questione biologica o corporea, essere donna è oggi una questione identitaria, tanto che chi si dichiara donna va considerata tale. Ciò perché il genere è uno spettro mentale e, di conseguenza, il corpo è ormai del tutto irrilevante. Questa nuova definizione del sesso è stata acclamata come progressista. Ma lo è davvero? Ed è davvero nuova? In questo libro irriverente, Kajsa Ekis Ekman traccia le radici ideologiche del fenomeno. Attingendo da analisi marxiste e femministe, l’autrice affronta la questione della scissione dell’identità tra interiorità e corporeità per giungere a criticarne tutte le implicazioni, tra cui soprattutto la prostituzione, quale pratica di vendita del proprio corpo senza vendere sé stesse, e la maternità surrogata, quale servizio privo di ripercussioni psico-emotive.

La lumière au siècle des Lumières & aujourd'hui
A la fois scientifique, artistique et philosophique, La Lumiere au siecle des lumieres et aujourd'hui vise a confronter l'evolution de la connaissance et du developpement des techniques a celle de l'art et du gout, en s'appuyant sur les recherches et les decouvertes effectuees au XVIIIe siecle. La presentation simultanee d'oeuvres d'art, d'objets et de documents scientifiques, leur integration a l'histoire des idees, illustrent l'impact du developpement du savoir et de la methode scientifique dans l'evolution des mentalites qui conduisit a la mise en place d'une societe civile republicaine et democratique. Neurobiologiste, Jean-Pierre Changeux est professeur au College de France et a l'Institut Pasteur et membre de l'Academie des sciences.

Annually published since 1930, the International Bibliography of Historical Sciences (IBOHS) is an international bibliography of the most important historical monographs and periodical articles published throughout the world, which deal with history from the earliest to the most recent times. The IBOHS is thus currently the only continuous bibliography of its kind covering such a broad period of time, spectrum of subjects and geographical range. The works are arranged systematically according to period, region or historical discipline, and alphabetically according to authors names or, in the case of anonymous works, by the characteristic main title word. The bibliography contains a geographical index and indexes of persons and authors.
Monetary Stability through International Cooperation
Monetary Stability through International Cooperation contains essays written by high ranking policy makers in the field of central banking and international finance, written in honour of André Szász, who has been Executive Director of De Nederlandsche Bank since 1973, responsible for international monetary relations. Colleagues from several other central banks, from finance ministries and from international institutions pay tribute to him by analysing the conditions fostering European as well as global monetary stability. The book provides an inside view of the thinking of monetary officials at the turn of 1993/1994, when the currency turmoil in the ERM of mid-1993 had subsided and views o...
Weak Convergence and Empirical Processes
This book provides an account of weak convergence theory, empirical processes, and their application to a wide variety of problems in statistics. The first part of the book presents a thorough treatment of stochastic convergence in its various forms. Part 2 brings together the theory of empirical processes in a form accessible to statisticians and probabilists. In Part 3, the authors cover a range of applications in statistics including rates of convergence of estimators; limit theorems for M− and Z−estimators; the bootstrap; the functional delta-method and semiparametric estimation. Most of the chapters conclude with “problems and complements.” Some of these are exercises to help th...
