Hardback. Zustand: Good. For 20 years Garrett Hardin has been our most hardnosed thinker about ecological problems.Filters Against Folly makes provocative reading. -- Michael Crichton The ecological problems facing our world present a forum for experts to offer slogans and solutions on all sides of the issue, but leave most of us confused and unsure of the future. In this bracing book, Garrett Hardin offers a plan for clear thinking about these dangers. He shows how the filters of literacy, understanding what words really mean; numeracy, being able to quantify and interpret information; and ecolacy, assessment of complex interactions over time, can allow anyone to make sensible judgments about ecological issues--even in the face of a barrage of confusing expertise. Filters Against Folly offers an antidote to some of the more perverse and dangerous irrationalities of our time: wishful self-delusion, educated incapacity, and foolhardy optimism.If ever this book were needed, it is needed today. -- Lynton K. Caldwell, School of Public Environmental Affairs, Indiana University.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Generalized Linear Models and Extensions, Second Edition provides a comprehensive overview of the nature and scope of generalized linear models (GLMs) and of the major changes to the basic GLM algorithm that allow modeling of data that violate GLM distributional assumptions. Deftly balancing theory and application, the book stands out in its coverage of the derivation of the GLM families and their foremost links, while also guiding readers in the application of the various models to real data. This edition has new sections on discrete response models, including zero-truncated, zero-inflated, censored, and hurdle count models, as well as heterogeneous negative binomial, generalized Poisson, and generalized binomial models. The book also includes a substantially expanded discussion of both proportional-odds and generalized ordered models, making it easy for readers to use these models in their own research.…
