Care was taken to maintain local coloring and verisimilitude, so that the whole might present a faithful and living picture of that microcosm, that singular little world into which I had been fortuitously thrown, and about which the external world had a ...

The volume of short stories which, in the first complete edition of the Comedie, opens with Les Marana, contains, with that in which La Recherche de l'Absolu leads off, the very finest productions of the author on a small scale, and they now appear together, La Recherche excepted. Almost all the pieces herein contained were early work, written when Balzac was under the combined excitement of his emergence from the valley of the shadow in which...

Bayesian methods combine information available from data with any prior information available from expert knowledge. The Bayes linear approach follows this path, offering a quantitative structure for expressing beliefs, and systematic methods for adjusting these beliefs, given observational data. The methodology differs from the full Bayesian methodology in that it establishes simpler approaches to belief specification and analysis based aroun...

Praise for 'Theory of Evolution and Relaxation of Multi-Spin Systems': ". it provides a lucid and systematic development of a very complex area of modern theory involving spin dynamics driven by complex, non-commuting hamiltonians.

"Dr. Kruk's manuscript is an extremely...
