Sampling Theory
Sampling theory considers how methods for selection of a subset of units from a finite population (a sample) affect the accuracy of estimates of descriptive population parameters (mean, total, proportion). Although a sound knowledge of sampling theory principles would seem essential for ecologists and natural resource scientists, the subject tends to be somewhat overlooked in contrast to other core statistical topics such as regression analysis, experimental design, and multivariate statistics. This introductory text aims to redress this imbalance by specifically targeting ecologists and resource scientists, and illustrating how sampling theory can be applied in a wide variety of resource contexts. The emphasis throughout is on design-based sampling from finite populations, but some attention is given to model-based prediction and sampling from infinite populations.
Beyond the State
"Private law beyond the state" is a topic that is fashionable, important, and widely discussed. Yet it presents so many different aspects and perspectives that it has, so far, remained remarkably poorly understood. This volume brings together contributions of leading scholars from the United States, Israel and Germany exploring the topic from different perspectives: legal history, law and economics, legal sociology, private international law, and legal anthropology. Contributors: Marietta Auer, Jürgen Basedow, Charles Donahue, Jr., Hanoch Dagan, James Gordley, Hans-Peter Haferkamp, Nils Jansen, Susanne Lepsius, Ralf Michaels, Annelise Riles, Florian Rödl, Chaim Saiman, David V. Snyder, Gunther Teubner, Christiane C. Wendehorst and Peer Zumbansen

Warding Off Evil
In this study, Michael J. Morris examines aspects of synoptic gospel demonology; specifically, human responses to demonic evil. It is clear that early Christian demonology can be more fully understood against the background of early Jewish traditions. In the Dead Sea Scrolls, for instance, there are two fundamental ways by which protection against demons is sought. The first anti-demonic method is "exorcism," and the second is characterized by its preventative nature and is typically referred to as "apotropaism." Although many contributions have been made on the topic of exorcism in the gospels, less attention has been paid to the presence of apotropaic features in the gospel texts. Therefore, Michael J. Morris offers a timely examination of apotropaic tradition in early Judaism and its significance for demonological material in the synoptic gospels.
Modeling the AIDS Epidemic
Emerging from the 34th Joint National Meeting of the Operations Research Society of America and The Institute of Management Sciences, held in San Francisco, November 1992, this volume presents AIDS modeling research that can directly or indirectly improve decision making for planning, resource allocation, and public health policy. The volume is divided into four sections: AIDS policy modeling; models for AIDS backcasting and forecasting; modeling infectivity and disease progression; and modeling the social organization of risky behavior.
