Letters from Hawaii is R. K. Lindsey's eighth book and a takeoff from Mark Twain's 1866 collection of twenty-five letters written from Hawaii for the Sacramento Union. Letters is an autobiographical sketch of Lindsey's work life. As a probation officer with the Hawaii Judiciary, park ranger with the National Park Service, self-employed farmer, a state legislator in Hawaii's State House, coffee plantation manager, a clerk typist, resource cente...

Models for Repeated Measurements will interest research statisticians in agriculture, medicine, economics, and psychology, as well as the many consulting statisticians who want an up-to-date expository account of this important topic. This edition of this successful book has been completelyupdated to take into account the many developments in the area over the last few years. It features three new chapters on models for continuous non-normal d...

Inference involves drawing conclusions about some general phenomenon from limited empirical observations in the face of random variability. In a scientific context, the general must include the completely unforeseen if all possibilities are to be considered. Many of the statistical models most used to describe such phenomena belong to one of a small number of families--the exponential, transformation, and stable families. In the past 25 years,...

Categorical data analysis is a special area of generalized linear models, which has become the most important area of statistical applications in many disciplines, from medicine to social sciences. This text presents the standard models and many newly developed ones in a language that can be immediately applied in many modern statistical packages such as GLIM, GENSTAT, S-Plus, as well as SAS and LISP-STAT. The book is structure around the dist...

This text is aimed at students in medicine, biology and the social sciences as well as those planning to specialize in applied statistics. It covers the basics of the design and analysis of surveys and experiments and provides an understanding of the basic principles of modeling and inference. Practical advice is provided on how to design a study, collect data, record observations accurately, detect errors, construct appropriate models, and in...

Waimea I Ka La'i is an autobiography. A collection of personal memories growing up in Waimea, a little cattle town, on the Island of Hawai'i, nestled in a crease at the foothills of the Kohala Mountain. Waimea I Ka La'i is a cornucopia of personal lessons learned and a life lived which I am bequeathing to our four precious grandsons through Story. Lessons of Love for my parents. Who sacrificed, went without for me and my 'little brother' so we...

This manual comprises a range of techniques for research workers in the fields of cell and molecular biology, physiology, plant breeding and propagation, and genetic engineering.

With My Papa at Cowboy Pond is an abbreviated autobiography. "I probably will not live to see our grandsons graduate from high school. This story is for them. Cowboy Pond on Waikoloa stream is where my story is set. It is a real place from where I impart grandfatherly advice via Lalamaikai, share tidbits about me and their Tutu (grandma), and emphasize a core message-live in the future, not the past. Lalamaikai and I are its central characters.

Reflections of a Wanna B Cowboy is the author's fifth book. Reflections is essentially Lindsey's autobiography written in "talk story" format. Talking story is a way of communicating among locals in the islands. Lindsey and his grandson Samuel Kamaile are its main characters. Its basic message is, we are global citizens. Author's Statement Reflections of a Wanna B Cowboy is my personal life story. Reflections is a story about an unfulfilled dr...

Introduces ways of modelling phenomena that occur over time. Covers stochastic processes, survival analysis, time series. Markov Chains and more.

This book describes how generalised linear modelling procedures can be used in many different fields, without becoming entangled in problems of statistical inference. The author shows the unity of many of the commonly used models and provides readers with a taste of many different areas, such as survival models, time series, and spatial analysis, and of their unity. As such, this book will appeal to applied statisticians and to scientists havi...

The aim of this book is to present a survey of the many ways in which the statistical package GLIM may be used to model and analyze stochastic processes. Its emphasis is on using GLIM interactively to apply statistical techniques, and examples are drawn from a wide range of applications including medicine, biology, and the social sciences. It is based on the author's many years of teaching courses along these lines to both undergraduate and gr...

The present text is the result of teaching a third year statistical course to undergraduate social science students. Besides their previous statistics courses, these students have had an introductory course in computer programming (FORTRAN, Pascal, or C) and courses in calculus and linear algebra, so that they may not be typical students of sociology. This course on the analysis of contingency tables has been given with all students in front o...
