Dear Colleagues,

We are sending you the following announcement of a new book publication of Prof. Dr. 
Victor Aladjev and believe you could be interested in this subject matter. If you or 
your colleagues are not interested in this publication, simply delete this E-mail. 
Apologies if you receive this notice more than once. We thank you for your attention!

We are introducing the following book on the General Statistics:

INTERACTIVE COURSE OF THE GENERAL THEORY OF STATISTICS
by Prof. Dr. Victor Zacharias ALADJEV
published by BB IAN Press: Tallinn, 2001, ISBN 9985-60-866-6

Interactive Course of General Theory of Statistics is a HTML-based course for 
undergraduate students in all fields of social, legal, biomedical and economic 
sciences. The book will introduce the basic concepts and methods of statistical data 
processing and their further development in various ways. With the help of these 
concepts and methods, a variety of applications will be examined, concentrating an 
attention on statistical data processing by computer. This book will enable the reader 
to acquire necessary statistical knowledge and elementary experience in statistical 
data processing by computers.

This book will be of particular interest to statistics educators and specialists who 
are involved in the teaching of statistics at all levels, as well as to researchers in 
statistics education.

A New Electronic Book on Statistics

Interactive Course of General Theory of Statistics

by Prof. Dr. V.Z. Aladjev

International Academy of Noosphere, The Baltic Branch

Interactive Course of General Theory of Statistics (STATBOOK) is an HTML-based course for undergraduate students in all fields of social and economic sciences. The book is the textbook to the course "General Theory of Statistics", including a number of unconventional topics. First of all, it deals with mathematical bases of statistics and use of computer technologies in statistical researches. The thematic choice of chapters and sections of the book reflects not only interests and tastes of the writer, and modern tendencies in applied statistics and orientation of the given work as well.

The following basic topics of the general theory of statistics are investigated in detail: the subject and method of statistics; elements of the theory of probability; bases of statistical observation; the report, grouping and representation of statistical data; absolute and relative quantities; bases of the average method; elements of analysis of variational and dynamic series; elements of an index method and computerized methods of analyzing statistical data. The book contains a number of concrete proposals to improve statistical practice.

This book is written for a large audience of researchers, statisticians, students, collegians and users of statistics in behavioral and social sciences. Above all, the book could be of great interest to a wide circle of readers who study statistical disciplines in high schools and colleges. It could be useful those who study statistics on their own.

Since a number of unconventional themes are included in the book, it could be a useful manual for those who deal with the statistical analysis of the data of various character. To illustrate the basic positions and procedures of statistical analysis, statistical data representing abstract or concrete populations or samples from them are presented. In our case the cumstat reflecting a creative activity of the Tallinn Research Group (TRG) in the Cellular Automata Theory and their applications is selected as an input data for illustrative examples of the considered material. The examples on the development of Cellular Automata Theory (Homogeneous Structures in Russian terminology) in modern cybernetics clarify some problems.

The novel features of this interactive course are numerous examples of the statistical procedures, realized in the environment of a well-known mathematical package Maple V. The source texts of the given procedures are enclosed with the texts of the book, which allows to use them directly in an environment of the package with the concrete data of the reader. Basic information on the package presented in the last chapter of the book is quite sufficient to start using it. In addition, a collection of worksheets with frequent statistical procedures for package Maple of releases 5 and 6 is presented.

The material of the present book is based on three books in Russian, which were written according to the results of a number of courses of lectures on General Theory of Statistics, Theory of Probabilities and Mathematical Statistics for undergraduate students of those high schools in Byelorussia and the Baltic countries which specialize in the field of economic and social sciences (jurisprudence, International law, sociology, psychology, economics, accounting and so on). The book contains an extensive Russian and English bibliography.

Audience: The STATBOOK can be recommended for a graduate level course and will be of interest to graduate students and researchers whose work involves statistical methodology, above all, in economics, social sciences, psychology, jurisprudence, accounting, and so on.

Contents: Preface. 1. A subject and method of a statistical science. 2. Elements of the probability theory. 3. Fundamentals of statistical observation. 4.
