The book investigates the misapplication of conventional statistical techniques to fat tailed distributions and looks for remedies, when possible. Switching from thin tailed to fat tailed distributions requires more than “changing the color of the dress.” Traditional asymptotics deal mainly with either n=1 or n=∞, and the real world is in between, under the “laws of the medium ...(展开全部)

纳西姆·尼古拉斯·塔勒布（Nassim Nicholas Taleb）是我们这个时代伟大的思想者之一，是当今令人敬畏的风险管理理论学者，被誉为拥有“罕见的勇气与博学”。他倾其一生研究概率和风险问题，撰写了50篇学术论文来探讨“不确定性”，内容涉及国际关系、风险管理、统计物理学。他大部分时间都在闲逛，在世界各地的咖啡馆中冥想。在成为作家和学者之前，塔勒布做过20年交易员，目前是纽约大学理工学院风险工程学特聘教授。

Propensity Score Matching provides readers with a systematic review of the origins, history, and statistical foundations of PSM and illustrates how to use PSM methods for solving evaluation problems. With a strong focus on practical applications, the authors explore various types of data and evaluation problems, strategies for using the methods, and the limitations of PSM. Unli...(展开全部)

This book covers the subject matter that is central to mathematical analysis: measure and integration theory, some point set topology, and rudiments of functional analysis. Also, a number of other topics are developed to illustrate the uses of this core material in important areas of mathematics and to introduce readers to more advanced techniques. Some of the material presente...(展开全部)

An in-depth look at real analysis and its applications-now expanded and revised. This new edition of the widely used analysis book continues to cover real analysis in greater detail and at a more advanced level than most books on the subject. Encompassing several subjects that underlie much of modern analysis, the book focuses on measure and integration theory, point set topolo...(展开全部)

阿尔弗雷德·索恩—雷特尔（Alfred Sohn—Rethel）（1899—1990）。德国著名的国民经济学家和社会哲学家，曾任不莱梅大学教授。早年曾师从奥地利马克思主义学派经济学家勒德尔（Emil Lederer），于1928年在海德堡获得国民经济学博士学位。其哲学思想接近法兰克福学派，从20世纪20年代开始便与批判理论的代表人物阿多诺、霍克海默和本雅明等交往密切。二战期间流亡英国，曾为丘吉尔等人从事过经济分析，并长期与马克思主义者汤普森交往。雷特尔的哲学思想即在本书中系统阐述的唯物主义认识理论，曾在20世纪60年代的激进学生运动中产生重要影响。作者还著有《认识的社会学理论》、《商品形式与思维形式》等。
