Birds of Paradise and Bowerbirds
This authoritative handbook, part of the Helm Identification Guide series, looks in detail at the remarkable and diverse birds of paradise – perhaps the ultimate birders' birds. Renowned for their elaborate and dazzling plumages, the birds of paradise (Paradisaeidae) and bowerbirds (Ptilonohynchidae) exhibit some of the most astonishing behaviours in the avian kingdom. The former is the most iconic group of birds found in New Guinea, while the bowerbirds extend into Australia, and are perhaps best known for the males' construction of avenue bowers, used to tempt females on the forest floor. This comprehensive monograph is dedicated to these two families, combining the product of more than ...
Bayesian Logical Data Analysis for the Physical Sciences
Bayesian inference provides a simple and unified approach to data analysis, allowing experimenters to assign probabilities to competing hypotheses of interest, on the basis of the current state of knowledge. By incorporating relevant prior information, it can sometimes improve model parameter estimates by many orders of magnitude. This book provides a clear exposition of the underlying concepts with many worked examples and problem sets. It also discusses implementation, including an introduction to Markov chain Monte-Carlo integration and linear and nonlinear model fitting. Particularly extensive coverage of spectral analysis (detecting and measuring periodic signals) includes a self-contained introduction to Fourier and discrete Fourier methods. There is a chapter devoted to Bayesian inference with Poisson sampling, and three chapters on frequentist methods help to bridge the gap between the frequentist and Bayesian approaches. Supporting Mathematica® notebooks with solutions to selected problems, additional worked examples, and a Mathematica tutorial are available at www.cambridge.org/9780521150125.
Wednesdays at One
A USA TODAY best-selling book “Fast-paced and chilling...a brilliant mystery about lies, shame, and secrets.” —Apple Books If you don’t confront your past...it might confront you first. Dr. Gregory Weber appears to have an enviable life. He's a renowned clinical psychologist residing in an elegant home in Cambridge, Massachusetts, with his wife, Liv, and their two kids. But Gregory feels increasingly disconnected. His marriage is strained, his children are distant, and he can’t stop fixating on an unforgivable mistake he made when he was seventeen. Something no one else knows about. So when an unscheduled client named Mira starts to appear in his office every Wednesday at 1 p.m. wi...
Pint Size
Over the years, few rugby league players have crossed the north-south divide. Only a handful have a reputation that breaks from the game's heartlands. Andy Gregory is one of them. Mention Gregory and it conjures up images of a sublime talent, creating truly memorable tries, inspiring club and country to against-all-odds triumphs with chest puffed out and the cocky stride of a man who knows he's better than all the rest. Coaching glories followed as he led Salford Reds back from the disappointment at missing out on the Super League revolution and into the top flight, before it all turned bitter - and lager, Guinness and vodka. Like so many other sporting heroes, Gregory has always liked a drink. But over the years that post-match pint turned into a day-long binge. So much so that it contributed to the break-up of his marriage and missing out on seeing his daughter grow through the early years. Now Gregory, victim of an acrimonious split with Salford amid tales of being stabbed in the back by his assistants, has bared his soul and spilled the beans on one of the most controversial careers in rugby league history.

Reparations
"Kwon and Thompson's eloquent reasoning will help Christians broaden their understanding of the contemporary conversation over reparations."--Publishers Weekly "A thoughtful approach to a vital topic."--Library Journal Christians are awakening to the legacy of racism in America like never before. While public conversations regarding the realities of racial division and inequalities have surged in recent years, so has the public outcry to work toward the long-awaited healing of these wounds. But American Christianity, with its tendency to view the ministry of reconciliation as its sole response to racial injustice, and its isolation from those who labor most diligently to address these things...
