This concise study of random processes offers graduate students and research physicists a survey encompassing both the relationship of Brownian movement with statistical mechanics and the problem of irreversible processes. It features a survey of Brownian movement; correlation, frequency spectrum, and distribution function; and noise in electric currents. 1962 edition.

This book attempts to understand an ancient people in terms of modern evolutionary biology. A basic idea is that Judaism is a group evolutionary strategy-what one might term an evolutionarily significant way for a group of people to get on in the world. The book documents several theoretically interesting aspects of group evolutionary strategies using Judaism as a case study. These topics include the theory of group evolutionary strategies, the genetic cohesion of Judaism, how Jews managed to erect and enforce barriers to gene flow between themselves and other peoples, resource competition between Jews and non-Jews, how Jews managed to have a high level of charity within their communities and at the same time prevented free-riding, how some groups of Jews came to have such high IQ's, and how Judaism developed in antiquity. This book was originally published in 1994 by Praeger Publishers. The Writers Club edition contains a new preface, Diaspora Peoples, describing several interesting group evolutionary The Gypsies, the Hutterites and Amish, the Calvinists and Puritans, and the Overseas Chinese.

Exploring the documentary film, this book traces its development from the first film shot by Louis Lumiere in 1895 to the last shaggy-dog story (Nick Broomfield's TV film, Tracking Down Maggie), and the commercial success of Steve James's three-hour saga, Hoop Dreams.

The book integrates social and personality development theories within a modern evolutionary framework, emphasizing the interconnectedness of its chapters. Each chapter builds on the others, with extensive cross-referencing, making the collective understanding essential for evaluating individual sections. The first chapter establishes the theoretical groundwork, while subsequent chapters explore key mechanisms of development, particularly focusing on temperament and personality, which serve as foundational concepts throughout the volume.

The author presents an evolutionary theory of Jewish involvement in immigration policy, anthropology, psychoanalysis, an leftist political ideology.

Alltsedan antiken har judiska befolkningar upprepade ganger natt en stallning av makt och inflytande inom vasterlandska samhallen. I denna boks forsta del diskuteras judiska bakgrundsegenskaper, som gynnar forvarvet av inflytande: etno-centrism, intelligens och rikedom, psykologisk intensitet, aggressivitet, med fokus huvudsakligen pa etnocentrismen i dess historiska, antropologiska och evolutionara sammanhang. Bokens andra del avhandlar sionismen, som i nutiden ar det viktigaste exemplet pa den judiska etnocentrismen. Sionismens historia kastar ljus over en inom hela det judiska samfundet pagaende dynamik, vari de mest radikala elementen till slut drar hela samfundet med sig. I den tredje delen granskas den neokonservativa rorelsen, som med George W. Bush kom till makten i Forenta staterna. I forbund med praktiskt taget hela det organiserade amerikanska judiska samfundet ar neokonservatismen en judisk fortruppsr-orelse med nara forbindelser med de mest extrema, nationalistiska, aggressiva, rasistiska och religiost fanatiska elementen inom Israel."
