Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'You can't beat this story for drama. . . . An omnibus of everything ever known, spoken, or written about Doc Holliday.'-Publishers Weekly'An engagingly written, persuasively argued, solidly documented work of scholarship that will surely take its place in the literature of the Old West.'-Boo…klistIn Doc Holliday: The Life and Legend, the historian Gary Roberts takes aim at the most complex, perplexing, and paradoxical gunfighter of the Old West, drawing on more than twenty years of research-including new primary sources-in his quest to separate the life from the legend. Doc Holliday was a study in contrasts: the legendary gunslinger who made his living as a dentist; the emaciated consumptive whose very name struck fear in the hearts of his enemies; the degenerate gambler and alcoholic whose fierce loyalty to his friends compelled him, more than once, to risk his own life; and the sidekick whose near-mythic status rivals that of the West's greatest heroes. With lively details of Holliday's spirited exploits, his relationships with such Western icons as Wyatt Earp and Bat Masterson, and the gunfight at the O.K. Corral, this book sheds new light on one of the most mysterious figures of frontier history.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Paths to Wealth through Common Stocks contains one original concept after another, each designed to greatly improve the results of those who self-manage their investments -- while helping those who rely on professional investment advice select the right advisor for their needs.

Filled with in-depth insights and expert advice, Paths to Wealth through Common Stocks expands upon the innovative ideas found in Fisher's highly regarded Common Stocks and Uncommon Profits -- summarizing how worthwhile profits have been and will continue to be made through common stock ownership, and revealing why his method can increase profits while reducing risk. Many of the ideas found here may depart from conventional investment wisdom, but the impressive results produced by these concepts -- which are still relevant in today's market environment -- will quickly remind you why Philip Fisher is considered one of the greatest investment minds of our time.

Uniquely, Paul Wilmott writes to inform and educate his readers, to convey ideas, and, most importantly, to show them how to do it.His greatest admirers are his readers. So, instead of endorsements from the great and the good, here are the words of his fans. Their sometimes unique spelling has been retained.I found it to be easily the best book that I have read/worked through on the subject.I thought it might amuse you to know that I think your book got me a job!I'd like to say that this is a great book but you already know that!I'm a junior derivatives trader in Mexico City. I've seen your book and I have only one coment: SEXY!Loved your book, which is a breath of fresh air, amongst all those arid derivatives books!! It really is in a class of its own. I have wasted so much money on stupid derivative books which too elementary or way too complicated.Purchased both Quant Finance and Derivatives a couple of days ago. Will not be able to afford steak or wine for weeks as a result.BTW, I want to congratulate you for the \*best\* book in Financial Engineering I've read in the last years.After reading the book I'd like to follow one of your courses, but they are way too expensive.Congratulations for your brilliant book.What I like about it is that it has this no-nonsense kind of approach that you'd expect in a physics text and it spells out the 'stuff between the equations'.Congratulation to your book Derivatives !!! The way you describe, present, and deliver Derivative knowledge is unique! One can feel your passion on the topic. It's a pleasure to read, study, re-read.Congratulations on a great new book - 'PW on Quant Finance'. I bought the DERIVATIVES one but cannot afford this one!!I am fanatical follower of your book 'Derivatives'. You are best and this not flattery. Sorry from my English!We use it for the part of our Banking and Risk Management course and it's much more comprehensive than the books that we have recommended in our study guide.Your book 'Derivatives: the Theory and Practice of Financial Engineering' is the best in the market so far.I shall waste no more precious words but to say that I am very simpathetic to your humor and irony.what most don't always seem to understand: irony is one of the GREAT filters to access knowledge in this world and an elegant one for that matter.your book rocks.Congratulations to the success of your book (I got my copy of it for Christmas).I would like to thank you for writing Derivatives.Derivatives is the Greatest! Thank you, thank you, thank you! Just read the first 7 chapters of Derivatives, and it speaks to me.complete, brilliant and amusing, stimulating for some original ideas and examples, did.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A self-contained treatment of fuzzy systems engineering, offering conceptual fundamentals, design methodologies, development guidelines, and carefully selected illustrative materialForty years have passed since the birth of fuzzy sets, in which time a wealth of theoretical developments, conceptual p…ursuits, algorithmic environments, and other applications have emerged. Now, this reader-friendly book presents an up-to-date approach to fuzzy systems engineering, covering concepts, design methodologies, and algorithms coupled with interpretation, analysis, and underlying engineering knowledge. The result is a holistic view of fuzzy sets as a fundamental component of computational intelligence and human-centric systems.Throughout the book, the authors emphasize the direct applicability and limitations of the concepts being discussed, and historical and bibliographical notes are included in each chapter to help readers view the developments of fuzzy sets from a broader perspective. A radical departure from current books on the subject, Fuzzy Systems Engineering presents fuzzy sets as an enabling technology whose impact, contributions, and methodology stretch far beyond any specific discipline, making it applicable to researchers and practitioners in engineering, computer science, business, medicine, bioinformatics, and computational biology. Additionally, three appendices and classroom-ready electronic resources make it an ideal textbook for advanced undergraduate- and graduate-level courses in engineering and science.
