Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Fine. viii, 196 pages, 8 unnumbered leaves of plates : illustrations, map (on lining papers) ; 22 cm ISBN 9780892010905, 0892010908 OCLC 5496345 Reprint of the 1942 ed. published by Scribner, New York ; red and black cloth, a few bumps on front cover ; in color pictorial dustjacket with painting by Dick Richardson ; Dickinson attended the US Naval Academy at Annapolis, Maryland, graduating with the Class of 1934. During World War II he served as a dive bomber pilot with the famed Scouting Squadron Six (VS-6) aboard the American aircraft carrier USS Enterprise (CV-6). In the opening minutes of the attack on Pearl Harbor on 7 Dec 1941, his scout plane was shot down with the loss of his tail gunner, but he parachuted to safety; this would be the first of two such experiences. He later fought in the Battle of Midway Island, the Battle of Santa Cruz Islands, the Battle of Cape Esperance, and the Marshall Islands, to name but a few. At the Battle of Midway in 1942, Dickinson and four dive bombers from his squadron attacked the Japanese Aircraft Carrier Kaga scoring the third of four hits with 250 kg bombs disabling the large carrier. After the attack, he appears to have run out of fuel and had to conduct a water landing, managed to survive along with his gunner, was rescued and returned to service. In 1946, he was given command of the Essex-class aircraft carrier USS Franklin (CV-13), nicknamed "Big Ben" (after Benjamin Franklin) until it was decommissioned in 1947. Dickinson ended his military career about 1953 with the rank of Rear Admiral (Upper Half), which equals two stars. Dickinson would later graduate from Dartmouth College with a Master's Degree, and teach at Hartnell College from 1963 until his retirement there in 1976. ; FINE/FINE. Book.…

Zustand: Sehr gut. Zustand: Sehr gut | Seiten: 364 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | FINANCIAL MATHEMATICS by CLARENCE H. RICHARDSON. Originally published in 1935. PREFACE: This text is designed for a three-hour, one-year course for students who desire a knowledge of the mathematics of modern business and finance. While the vocational aspects of the subject should be especially attractive to students of commerce and business administration, yet an understanding of the topics that are considered interest, discount, an nuities, bond valuation, depreciation, insurance may well be desirable information for the educated layman. To live intelligently in this complex age requires more than a super ficial knowledge of the topics to which we have just alluded, and it is pal pably absurd to contend that the knowledge of interest, discount, bonds, and insurance that one acquires in school arithmetic is sufficient to under stand modern finance. Try as one may, one cannot escape questions of finance. The real issue is shall we deal with them with understanding and effectiveness or with superficiality and ineffectiveness While this text presupposes a knowledge of elementary algebra, we have listed for the students convenience, page x, a page of important formulas from Miller and Richardson, Algebra Commercial Statistical that should be adequate for the well-prepared student. Although we make frequent reference to this Algebra in this text on Financial Mathematics, the necessary formulas are found in this reference list. In the writing of this text the general student and not the pure mathe matician has been kept constantly in mind. The text includes those tech niques and artifices that many years of experience in teaching the subject have proved to be pedagogically fruitful. Some general features may be enumerated here 1 The illustrative examples are numerous and are worked out in detail, many of them having been solved by more than one method in order that the student may compare the respective methods of attack. 2 Line diagrams, valuable in the analysis and presentation of problem material, have been given emphasis. 3 Summaries of important formulas occur at strategic points. 4 The exercises and problems are nu frierous, and they are purposely selected to show the applications of the theory to the many fields of activity. These exercises and problems are abundant, and no class will hope to do more than half of them. 5 Sets iv Preface of review problems are found at the ends of the chapters and the end of the book. A few special features have also been included 1 Interest and dis count have been treated with unusual care, the similarities and differences having been pointed out with detail. 2 The treatment of annuities is pedagogical and logical. This treatment has been made purposely flexible so that, if it is desired, the applications may be made to depend upon two general formulas. No new formulas are developed for the solution of problems involving annuities due and deferred annuities, and these special annuities are analyzed in terms of ordinary annuities. 3 The discussion of probability and its application to insurance is more extended than that found in many texts. In this edition we are including Answers to the exercises and problems.…
