Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - In 1985 I first began my research on the life and work of Harold Hotel ling. That year, Harold Hotelling's widow had donated the collection of his private p:;tpers, correspondence and manuscripts to the Butler Library, Columbia University. This is a most appropriate place for them to reside, in that Hotelling's most productive period as an active researcher in eco nomics and statistics coincides with the years when he was Professor of Mathematical Economics at Columbia (1931-1946). The Hotelling Collection comprises some 13,000 separate items and contains numerous unpublished letters and manuscripts of great importance to historians of economics and statistics. In the course of the following year I was able, with the generous financial assistance of the Nuffield Foundation, the Economic and Social Research Council, the British Academy and the University of Durham, to spend six weeks over the Easter period working on the collection. I returned to New York in September 1986 while on sabbatical leave from the University of Durham, and I spent most of the following eight months examining the many documents in the collection. During that academic year I was grateful to Columbia University who gave me the title of Visiting Research Professor and gave me the freedom to work in their many well-stocked libraries.

Erste Ausgabe einer seiner Hauptarbeiten. - "Hotelling's best known statistical contributions in multivariate analysis remain vital and current to present times. These specifically include Hotelling's T2, principal components, and a number of correlational techniques. Hotelling (1931) had recognized that experiments often have multiple measurements on each individual, and thus multiple univariate t-tests would be correlated. Hotelling's elegant solution was to propose a vector formulation of Student's test which yields a quadratic form whose distribution under the null hypothesis is that of an F-distribution. In particular, he showed that the general distribution of the T2 does not depend on nuisance parameters, but only on a quadratic form in the population mean vector, in which the matrix of the quadratic form is the inverse of the population covariance matrix. In showing this, Hotelling made use of invariance, thereby anticipating a theory developed much later. The multivariate version of Student's t-statistic remains known as Hotelling's T2 statistic" (Encyclopedia of Mathematics). - Hotelling (1895-1973) gilt als einer der wichtigsten Statistiker und Ökonomen des frühen 20.

[No place, no printer], 1927. 8vo. Without wrappers (as issued). Offprint from: "Journal of the American Statistical Association", September, 1927. Fine and clean. Pp. 283-314. Scarce offprint of Hotelling's paper on differential equations in statistics. "Harold Hotelling, a creative thinker in both mathematical statistics and economics. [.] His influence on the development of economic theory was deep though it occupied a relatively small part of a highly productive scientific life devoted primarily to mathematical statistics" only ten of some 87 published papers were devoted to economics, but of these sic are landmarks which continue to this to lead to further developments" (New Palgrave).

[Various places and printers], 1927 - 1953. Collection of 4 offprint from various academic journals. All with wrappers (or as issued) and in fine condition. Collection of offprints by mathematical statistician and economic theorist Harold Hotelling. He is famous for Hotelling's T-squared distribution and its use in statistical hypothesis testing and confidence regions. He also introduced canonical correlation analysis and has a crucial place in the growth of mathematical economics.

[No place, no printer], 1931. 8vo. Without wrappers (as issued). Offprint from: "Journal of the American Statistical Association", June, 1931. Fine and clean. Pp. 135-149. Scarce offprint of Hotelling's important paper on in which it for the first time is statistically demonstrated that a delayed dip in birthrates will occur with populations iwhen subjected to harvest failures or epidemics.

Ann Arbor, Edwards Brothers, 1931. 8vo. In the original grey printed wrappers. Offprint from: "The Annals of Mathematical Statistics", August, 1931. Very light miscolouring to wrappers, otherwise a very fine copy. Pp. 360-378. Scarce offprint of Hotelling's landmark paper on what was later termed as 'Confidence Intervals'. "Important as was his contribution to economics, most of his effort and his influence were felt in the field of mathematical statistics, particularly in the development of multivariate analysis. In a fundamental paper [the present], he generalized Student's test to the simultaneously test of hypotheses about the means of many variables with a joint normal distribution. In the course of this paper, he gave a correct statement of what were later termed 'confidence intervals'. (The New Palgrave).
