Unlike traditional introductory math/stat textbooks, Probability and Statistics: The Science of Uncertainty brings a modern flavor to the course, incorporating the computer and offering an integrated approach to inference that includes the frequency approach and the Bayesian inference. From the start the book integrates simulations into its theoretical coverage, and emphasizes the use of computer-powered computation throughout. Math and science majors with just one year of calculus can use this text and experience a refreshing blend of applications and theory that goes beyond merely mastering the technicalities. The new edition includes a number of features designed to make the material more accessible and level-appropriate to the students taking this course today.
Nautilus Book Awards' Better Books for a Better World | Axiom Business Book Award Winner GrubHub founder Mike Evans reveals the inside story of how he grew a multibillion-dollar behemoth that changed the way we eat. Hungry and tired one night, Mike wanted a pizza, but getting a pizza delivered was a pain in the neck. He didn’t want to call a million restaurants to see what was open. So, as an avid coder, he created GrubHub in his spare bedroom to figure out who delivered to his apartment. Then, armed with a $140 check from his first customer and ignoring his crushing college debt, he quit his job. Over the next decade, Mike grew his little delivery guide into the world’s premier online o...
This book provides an overview of recent work on developing a theory of statistical inference based on measuring statistical evidence. It attempts to establish a gold standard for how a statistical analysis should proceed. The book illustrates relative belief theory using many examples and describes the strengths and weaknesses of the theory. The author also addresses fundamental statistical issues, including the meaning of probability, the role of subjectivity, the meaning of objectivity, and the role of infinity and continuity.
Churches worldwide have adopted Mike Evans' book Learning to Do What Jesus Did as the manual for building a prayer team capable of ministering effectively to the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of others through prayer. "I heartily recommend Mike Evans' manual on prayer ministry [Learning to do What Jesus Did]. I know Mike personally and he is eminently practical, as well as being a sound, balanced teacher in the areas of both healing and deliverance. This book would be an excellent guide if you yourself want to learn how to pray for healing or, better yet to train a prayer team for your church." Francis MacNutt, Ph.D., Founder of Christian Healing Ministries
"Religion and science often appear to cause conflict in American public life. But why? This book reports the results from the first study to combine large-scale empirical analysis of multiple "religion and science" debates with in-depth research into what Americans actually want from public life. The surprising finding is that apparent conflicts involving religion and science reflect a more fundamental conflict between media elites and ordinary Americans over what good debate should be, raising profound questions about the future of the public sphere and American democracy"--Provided by publisher.

A warning and a trumpet call, The Return reveals how prophets from Moses to Jesus have predicted today's most devastating events--and the world's ultimate transformation. Fascinating and exciting reading!--C.C. Carlson, co-author of The Late Great Planet Earth.
Michael Gove is one of the most recognisable faces in British politics – and one of the most divisive. Whether it's taking on the education 'blob', acting as a frontman for the Brexit campaign or orchestrating one of the bloodiest political assassinations in the history of British politics, Gove is a man who makes things happen. But it was almost so different, and his story, from being born into care to standing for the leadership of the Conservative Party, could have come straight from the pages of a Charles Dickens novel. A charming man to his friends, and a cold-blooded zealot to his enemies, Gove provokes a reaction from everyone, be it loyalty, anger, respect or fury. Love him or hate...
