Introduction to Statistical Methods in Modern Genetics

Introduction to Statistical Methods in Modern Genetics

M.C. Yang

CRC Press
2019
nidottu
Although the basic statistical theory behind modern genetics is not very difficult, most statistical genetics papers are not easy to read for beginners in the field, and formulae quickly become very tedious to fit a particular area of application. Introduction to Statistical Methods in Modern Genetics distinguishes between the necessary and unnecessary complexity in a presentation designed for graduate-level statistics students. The author keeps derivations simple, but does so without losing the mathematical details. He also provides the required background in modern genetics for those looking forward to entering this arena. Along with some of the statistical tools important in genetics applications, students will learn:How a gene is found How scientists have separated the genetic and environmental aspects of a person's intelligence How genetics are used in agriculture to improve crops and domestic animals What a DNA fingerprint is and why there are controversies about itAlthough the author assumes students have a foundation in basic statistics, an appendix provides the necessary background beyond the elementary, including multinomial distributions, inference on frequency tables, and discriminant analysis. With clear explanations, a multitude of figures, and exercise sets in each chapter, this text forms an outstanding entrée into the rapidly expanding world of genetic data analysis.

The Discipline of History and the History of Thought

The Discipline of History and the History of Thought

M.C. Lemon

Routledge
1995
sidottu
Although much has been written of the nature of history and its disciplinary problems, less attention has been paid to the history of thought. M.C. Lemon's rigorously philosophical work first re-asserts the discipline of history in general as narrative based, before pursuing the methodological implications for the history of thought. This original work of scholarship will raise the level of argument in philosophy of history and provoke debate among historians, philosophers, and political theorists.

Philosophy of History

Philosophy of History

M.C. Lemon

Routledge
2003
sidottu
Philosophy of History is an essential introduction to a vast body of writing about history, from classical Greece and Rome to the modern world. M.C. Lemon maps out key debates and central concepts of philosophy of history, placing principal thinkers in the context of their times and schools of thought. Lemon explains the crucial differences between speculative philosophy as an enquiry into the content of history, and analytic philosophy of history as relating to the methods of history. The first two parts of the book trace each of these traditions, whereas the third part revisits both in the light of recent contributions to the discipline. This guide provides a comprehensive survey of historical thought since ancient times. Its clear terminology and lucid argument will make it an invaluable source for students and teachers alike.

The Growth and Structure of Elizabethan Comedy

The Growth and Structure of Elizabethan Comedy

M.C. Bradbrook

University of California Press
2022
pokkari
The Growth and Structure of Elizabethan Comedy is a rich exploration of the evolution, dynamics, and cultural underpinnings of comedy during the Elizabethan and Jacobean periods. This work delves into the interplay of popular traditions and learned classical influences, illustrating how Elizabethan drama emerged from the fusion of folk revelry, rhetorical traditions, and evolving theatrical practices. It examines the roots of comedy in seasonal festivals, city pageantry, and moralistic plays, while also addressing the challenges faced by playwrights as they sought to balance the expectations of public entertainment with the structured demands of classical forms. Through an engaging analysis of major figures like Shakespeare and Jonson, the book traces how these writers navigated and shaped the comedic landscape, creating works that bridged the gap between the popular and the scholarly. This comprehensive study not only contextualizes the comedies within their historical and social milieu but also highlights their enduring relevance. The book offers insights into the vibrant collaboration between audiences and performers, the transition from oral to literary traditions, and the shifting dynamics of humor, satire, and social commentary. From the organic growth seen in Shakespeare’s works to the structured precision of Jonson’s, The Growth and Structure of Elizabethan Comedy captures the vitality and complexity of a theatrical golden age. This is an essential resource for readers interested in the artistry, innovation, and cultural significance of one of the most dynamic periods in English literary history. This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press’s mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1956.
