200% OF NOTHING An Eye-Opening Tour Through the Twists and Turns of Math Abuse and Innumeracy |
![](/file/20394/OMEGA and Dilbert Too!.iso/Omega/WWW.BOOKS1.COM/CATALOG/IMAGES/ma1200.GIF) |
A. K. Dewdney
192 pp., 1993
ISBN 0-471-57776-6 Wiley
In this delightfully witty excursion into the world of mathematical manipulation, popular columnist and math wiz A. K. Dewdney unveils the many ways in which numbers are twisted and statistics are turned in order to fool the unsuspecting public. Two Hundred Percent of Nothing exposes the slick tricks and subtle schemes used by advertisers, politicians, lobbyists, stockbrokers, car dealers, and just about anybody who tries to impress us with numbers, charts and graphs.

A FIRST COURSE IN FUZZY LOGIC |
![](/file/20394/OMEGA and Dilbert Too!.iso/Omega/WWW.BOOKS1.COM/CATALOG/IMAGES/ma2026.gif) |
Hung T. Nguyen and Elbert A. Walker
288 pp., 1996
ISBN 0-8493-9477-5 CRC
Using material from a successful course on fuzzy logic, this book is an introduction to the theory of fuzzy sets: mathematical objects modeling the vagueness of our natural language when we describe phenomena that do not have sharply defined boundaries. The book provides background information necessary to apply fuzzy set theory in various areas, including engineering, fuzzy logic, and decision making. The exercises at the end of each chapter serve to deepen the reader's understanding of the concepts, and to test their ability to make the necessary calculations.

Robert Gilmore
184 pp., 1995
ISBN 0-387-91495-1 Springer-Verlag
In this cleverly conceived book, physicist Robert Gilmore makes accessible some complex concepts in quantum mechanics by sending Alice to Quantumland-a whole new Wonderland, smaller than an atom, where each attraction demonstrates a different aspect of quantum theory. Alice's unusual encounters, enhanced by illustrations by Gilmore himself, make the Uncertainty Principle, wave functions, the Pauli Principle, and other elusive concepts easier to grasp.

Terrence J. Akai
Terrence J. Akai ISBN 0-471-57523-2 Wiley
Covers a large number of numerical methods-including statistical methods-that engineers and technologists are likely to encounter. Over 75% of the worked examples and case studies are based on applied problems.
This new text uses pseudocodes (over 40 of them) that makes it independent of the programming language. Pedagogically sound with conversational writing style, it discusses the pitfalls of various methods and makes recommendations for choice of method. Four parts cover the foundations; data analysis; numerical calculus; and advanced topics such as matrix eigenproblems, partial differential equations; and design and optimization.
