Fresh perspectives on the English clergy, their books, and the wider Anglo-Saxon church. Priests were ubiquitous figures in the Anglo-Saxon world: they acted as educators, agents of royal authority, scribes, and dealers in real estate. But what set priests apart from the society in which they lived was the authority to provide pastoral care and their ability to use the written word. Early medieval bishops saw books as indispensable to a priest's duties and episcopal legislation frequently provided lists of books that priests were to have: tools of the trade for the secular clergy. These books are not only an exceedingly valuable window into pastoral care, but also a barometer for the changes taking place in the English church of the tenth and eleventh centuries. This first full-length study of Anglo-Saxon priests' books examines a wide array of evidence, including booklists, music, liturgy, narrative, and, crucially, the surviving manuscripts. The volume opens with a consideration of the context of a priest's life and work, moving on to investigate the issues of clerical literacy and the availability of books to priests, uncovering avenues for priestly education and elucidating the role that the secular clergy played in channels of manuscript production and distribution. The second part analyses the documentary and manuscript evidence for certain classes of priests' books, challenging existing thought and arguing that two poorly understood manuscripts are in fact books for priests.

The importance of nonparametric methods in modern statistics hasgrown dramatically since their inception in the mid-1930s.Requiring few or no assumptions about the populations from whichdata are obtained, they have emerged as the preferred methodologyamong statisticians and researchers performing data analysis.Today, these highly efficient techniques are being applied to anever-widening variety of experimental designs in the social,behavioral, biological, and physical sciences. This long-awaited Second Edition of Myles Hollander and Douglas A.Wolfe's successful Nonparametric Statistical Methods meets theneeds of a new generation of users, with completely up-to-datecoverage of this important statistical area. Like its highlyacclaimed predecessor, the revised edition, along with itscompanion ftp site, aims to equip students with the conceptual andtechnical skills necessary to select and apply the appropriateprocedures for a given situation. An extensive array of examplesdrawn from actual experiments illustrates clearly how to usenonparametric approaches to handle one- or two-sample location anddispersion problems, dichotomous data, and one-way and two-waylayout problems. Rewritten and updated, this Second Edition nowincludes new or expanded coverage of: * Nonparametric regression methods. * The bootstrap. * Contingency tables and the odds ratio. * Life distributions and survival analysis. * Nonparametric methods for experimental designs. * More procedures, real-world data sets, and problems. * Illustrated examples using Minitab and StatXact. An ideal text for an upper-level undergraduate or first-yeargraduate course, this text is also an invaluable source forprofessionals who want to keep abreast of the latest developmentswithin this dynamic branch of modern statistics.

Additive manufacturing has matured from rapid prototyping through the now popular and "maker"-oriented 3D printing, recently commercialized and marketed. The terms describing this technology have changed over time, from "rapid prototyping" to "rapid manufacturing" to "additive manufacturing," which reflects largely a focus on technology.This book discusses the uptake, use, and impact of the additive manufacturing and digital fabrication technology. It augments technical and business-oriented trends with those in product design and design studies. It includes a mix of disciplinary and transdisciplinary trends and is rich in case and design material. The chapters cover a range of design-centered views on additive manufacturing that are rarely addressed in the main conferences and publications, which are still mostly, and importantly, concerned with tools, technologies, and technical development. The chapters also reflect dialogues about transdisciplinarity and the inclusion of domains such as business and aesthetics, narrative, and technology critique. This is a great textbook for graduate students of design, engineering, computer science, marketing, and technology and also for those who are not students but are curious about and interested in what 3D printing really can be used for in the near future.

There are many books on palaeontology, aimed at amateurs, undergraduates and aspiring academics. Perhaps commonest amongst these are guides to fossil identification, from the general (basic texts on fossil variety and morphology) to the specific (field guides to specific groups, localities or horizons). Many of these are readable, comprehensive and provide good advice. This is not such a book - there is more to the subject than just putting a name on a specimen, however important that may be.As the book’s title states, this is a practical manual covering the many aspects of palaeontology. It is organised in fifty-three chapters; each chapter focusses on one aspect of palaeontology as viewed with a geologist’s trained eye. It can be read from cover-to-cover or dipped into when an answer to a specific question is needed. The aim is to help the developing palaeontologist move their skills on to the next level.It is aimed, primarily, at the beginner in the broadest sense, both amateur and undergraduate. Palaeontologists and geologists are encouraged to use the book as much as a reference as a reader, dipping in to the chapters that contain relevant tips, hints and comments to enable them to improve their understanding of their current interest. It is informative, readable and, most of all, of practical application for all palaeontologists.
