Cardon M: Introductory Business
Statistics Vol 2

Introductory Business Statistics Vol 2

A groundbreaking bridge between traditional financial theories and emerging interdisciplinary approaches, offering a unique perspective on finance in these uncertain times. From a seasoned expert in finance, behavioral finance, complexity science, and quantum finance. Adaptive Finance is a forward-looking exploration of the evolving world of finance, addressing the most pressing challenges and emerging trends facing financial markets today. It examines how traditional economic and financial models, long dominant in the field, are being redefined by advancements in behavioral science, mathematics, and technology. Financial professionals and academics must confront risks and dynamics that established theories often fail to capture in an era marked by complexity, technological disruption, and global uncertainty. This book provides the intellectual foundation needed to tackle these challenges. The chapters span a wide range of topics—from behavioral finance and causal models to quantum finance and innovations in financial systems—offering a comprehensive view of the forces reshaping finance. The book begins with well-established frameworks and progressively explores cutting-edge concepts, guiding readers through the transformation of financial theory and practice. Each chapter stands on its own, making the book suitable for both comprehensive study and selective reading. The authors present a timely perspective on how finance must adapt to a more complex and dynamic world.

- How can the colours of a map reinforce our biases? - What does a postcolonial map of the world look like? - How do indigenous communities use maps to argue for self-determination? A stunning, thought-provoking exploration of how maps shape our understanding of the world - featuring over 150 beautiful full-colour maps. 'This striking study . . . lavishly illustrated . . . stuns' - Publishers Weekly 'A true genius of cartography . . . Radical Cartography will make you see maps, and, indeed, your place on the planet, with fresh eyes' - Daniel Immerwahr, author of How to Hide an Empire Maps are everywhere. They can change how cities are designed and how rivers flow, how wars are fought and how land claims are settled, how children learn about race and how colonialism becomes a habit of mind. Maps don't just show us information - they help construct our world. Cartographer and historian William Rankin argues that it's time to reimagine what a map can be and how it can be used. Maps are not neutral. They are innately political, defining how the world is divided, what becomes visible and what stays hidden, and whose voices are heard. Brimming with vibrant, radical maps created by Rankin and by other cutting-edge mapmakers, Radical Cartography challenges the map as a tool of the status quo. Changing our maps can change the questions we ask, the answers we accept - and the planet we build.

Radical Cartography

The legendary bestseller that made millions look at the world in a radically different way returns in a beautiful 20th anniversary edition featuring a new forewordWhich is more dangerous: a gun or a swimming pool? Why do drug dealers still live with their moms? What do real estate agents and the KKK have in common?These may not sound like typical questions for an economist to ask. But Steven D. Levitt is not a typical economist. He is a much-heralded scholar who studies the riddles of everyday life—from cheating and crime to sports and child-rearing—and whose conclusions turn conventional wisdom on its head. Freakonomics is a groundbreaking collaboration between Levitt and Stephen J. Dubner, an award-winning author and journalist. Some of these questions concern life-and-death issues; others have an admittedly freakish quality. Thus the new field of study contained in this book: freakonomics.Through forceful storytelling and wry insight, Levitt and Dubner show that economics is, at root, the study of incentives—how people get what they want, or need, especially when other people want or need the same thing. In Freakonomics, they explore the hidden side of everything. The inner workings of a crack gang. The myths of campaign finance. The telltale marks of a cheating schoolteacher. What unites all these stories is a belief that the modern world, despite a great deal of complexity and downright deceit, is not impenetrable, is not unknowable, and—if the right questions are asked—is even more intriguing than we think. All it takes is a new way of looking. Freakonomics establishes this unconventional premise: If morality represents how we would like the world to work, then economics represents how it actually does work. It is true that readers of this book will be armed with enough riddles and stories to last a thousand cocktail parties. But Freakonomics can provide more than that. It will literally redefine the way we view the modern world.This 20th anniversary edition of the book includes a gorgeous new cover design and a new foreword by Stephen Dubner, reflecting on the unexpected impact Freakonomics has had on the world over the last two decades, as well as the New York Times Magazine profile Dubner wrote about Levitt that started it all.

A Rogue Economist Explores the Hidden Side of Everything

Freakonomics Twentieth Anniversary Edition

How the computer revolution shaped our conception of rationality—and why human problems require solutions rooted in human intuition, morality, and judgment In the 1940s, mathematicians set out to design computers that could act as ideal rational agents in the face of uncertainty. The Irrational Decision tells the story of how they settled on a peculiar mathematical definition of rationality in which every decision is a statistical question of risk. Benjamin Recht traces how this quantitative standard came to define our understanding of rationality, looking at the history of optimization, game theory, statistical testing, and machine learning. He explains why, now more than ever, we need to resist efforts by powerful tech interests to drive public policy and essentially rule our lives. While mathematical rationality has proven valuable in accelerating computers, regulating pharmaceuticals, and deploying electronic commerce, it fails to solve messy human problems and has given rise to a view of a rational world that is not only overquantified but surprisingly limited. Recht shows how these mathematical methods emerged from wartime research and influenced fields ranging from economics to health care, drawing on illuminating examples ranging from diet planning to chess to self-driving cars. Highlighting both the power and limitations of mathematical rationality, The Irrational Decision reveals why only humans can resolve fundamentally political or value-based questions and proposes a more expansive approach to decision making that is appropriately supported by computational tools yet firmly rooted in human intuition, morality, and judgment.

This innovative book explores methodologies for constructing confidence intervals for proportions. It compares existing techniques and introduces new procedures developed by the authors, emphasizing the actual coverage function to assess their effectiveness. It covers various applications, such as estimating success rates in Monte Carlo simulations, gauging electoral support, assessing project completion rates, and evaluating product reliability. It provides analysts with both point and interval estimators, highlighting how interval estimators offer precision for point estimates.Key focus is placed on selecting appropriate confidence interval procedures and understanding their statistical properties. While traditional methods offer only approximate intervals, this work examines popular options and derives their statistical characteristics, providing guidelines for practitioners. Additionally, it discusses pointwise confidence intervals for survivor functions from randomly right-censored datasets, appealing to reliability engineers and survival analysts. It includes practical applications through functions in R, allowing practitioners to compute confidence intervals and visualize their coverage.As the first of its kind to focus solely on this topic, the book serves as a valuable resource for advanced students and can support a one-semester course on confidence intervals for proportions, making a significant contribution to the field of statistics.

The acclaimed New York Times bestseller—“the rare business history that reads like a thriller” (Publishers Weekly)—that tells the story of how we came to believe that financial markets knew best and how that belief steered us wrong, now updated to reflect the latest academic research and market developments.The financial crisis of 2008 and the subsequent Great Recession seemed to demolish many cherished beliefs—most significantly, the theory that financial markets always get things right. Justin Fox’s The Myth of the Rational Market, first published in 2009, explained where that idea came from and where it went wrong.Our reliance on financial markets hasn’t gone away, and the book’s themes are as relevant today as in the aftermath of the financial crisis. An intellectual whodunit, The Myth of the Rational Market brings to life the people and ideas that forged modern finance and investing—from the formative days of Wall Street through the Great Depression to the financial escapades shaping our lives and economy today. It’s a tale of professors who made and lost fortunes, battled fiercely over ideas, beat the house at blackjack, wrote bestselling books, and played major roles on the world stage.In this new edition, Justin Fox revisits his classic text. All-new material includes<ul><li>An update on developments in academic economics and finance, which launched rational market theory and are still contending with how much imperfection and irrationality to incorporate into models of financial markets.</li><li>A look at what these theories have to tell us about such market phenomena as the triumph of index funds, the rise of cryptocurrencies, meme stocks, the artificial intelligence investing boom, and Elon Musk.</li></ul>A sweeping history hailed for lively storytelling that makes complex economic ideas clear, The Myth of the Rational Market is essential for understanding American economics, investment, and business in the twenty-first century.
