250 pages
ISBN: 9780443447518
January 2026
Fundamentals of Statistics for Researchers and Data Analysts explains statistical methods, and the assumptions and prerequisites for applying various analytical tools from an statistical point of view. Statistical analysis has become indispensable in almost all fields of science, business, industry and medicine, for evidence-based decision making and forecasting. However, due to lack of fundamental understanding of statistics, results of data analysis often remain inconclusive or erroneous. In addition, data analysts or even statistical advisers may not be familiar with the subject area of the data, leading to inaccurate application of statistical tools and interpretation of results. To address these issues, this book breaks down the concepts of statistics into accessible, practical explanations with real-world examples. The book is organized by first explaining what statistical thinking is and how one should proceed with formulating their question in terms of a statistical hypothesis. Then step by step, topics are explained in detail, including data generation by choice of proper study design, data collection methods, identifying outliers, methods of data analysis, and finally interpretation of results to help make the required decision. Essential statistical methods such as classification techniques, correlation analysis, regression models, probability distributions, model building and statistical tests of significance are explained with live datasets using Excel and SPSS. Fundamentals of Statistics for Researchers and Data Analysts instructs readers on the precise methodology of analyzing data and interpretation of statistical results to arrive at a valid conclusion. Readers can use the same methodology from the case studies given in the book for their own applications and research by replacing the variables in the examples with the variables from their own datasets. The book ensures that readers are well-prepared for data-driven roles in various sectors.

Keynesian Behavioral Macroeconomics, 1e
Theodore KoutsobinasElsevier
200 pages
ISBN: 9780443247521
January 2026
Keynesian Behavioral Macroeconomics analyzes Keynes’s landmark contributions in behavioral economics and develops a new and fresh genre of macroeconomic analysis. It compels us to consider seriously the earlier-generation warnings about the impact of investors’ animal spirits and financiers’ liquidity-presence using cognitive-based and social psychology heuristics. Innovative in its subject matter, approach, theoretical development and policy prescriptions, this constructivist pluralist approach can contribute to important debates. This fresh look in macroeconomics can fruitfully be applied by macroeconomists, policymakers, and market participants to prevent effective demand shortages, stimulate the economy, preserve job creation, and impact redistribution, sustainability and social inclusion. In this timely book, Theodore Koutsobinas develops a synthesis of Keynes’s macroeconomic theory with contemporary developments in behavioral macroeconomics to analyze urgent real-world challenges, and he proposes successful solutions for macroeconomic policy. This volume uniquely explains how Keynes’s magnificent, crucial, but long-forgotten dynamics can be analyzed on the basis of behavioral foundations to explain amplified global finance cycles, booms and busts, and macroeconomic instability with harmful effects on incomes and jobs.

An Introduction to Stochastic Modeling , Fifth Edition bridges the gap between basic probability and an intermediate level course in stochastic processes, serving as the foundation for either a one-semester or two-semester course in stochastic processes for students familiar with elementary probability theory and calculus. The objectives are to introduce students to the standard concepts and methods of stochastic modeling, to illustrate the rich diversity of applications of stochastic processes in the applied sciences, and to provide an integrated treatment of theory, applications and practical implementation. A well-regarded resource for many years, the text is an ideal foundation for a broad range of students.

An Introduction to Writing Mathematical Proofs: Shifting Gears from Calculus to Advanced Mathematics addresses a critical gap in mathematics education, particularly for students transitioning from calculus to more advanced coursework. Recognizing the challenges many students face in proof-writing and mathematical logic, this textbook is designed for those with little to no prior experience. It provides a structured and supportive approach, guiding students through the intricacies of writing proofs while building a solid foundation in essential mathematical concepts. The book is organized into three comprehensive sections. The first section introduces elementary proof methods, beginning with fundamental topics such as sets and mathematical logic, and systematically developing the properties of real numbers and geometry from a proof-writing perspective. The second section delves into advanced proof methods, introducing quantifiers and techniques such as proof by induction, counterexamples, contraposition, and contradiction. Finally, the third section applies these techniques to a variety of mathematical topics, including functions, equivalence relations, countability, and a variety of algebraic activities, allowing students to synthesize their learning in meaningful ways. An Introduction to Writing Mathematical Proofs: Shifting Gears from Calculus to Advanced Mathematics not only equips students with essential proof-writing skills but also fosters a deeper understanding of mathematical reasoning. Each chapter features clearly defined objectives, fully worked examples, and a diverse array of exercises designed to encourage exploration and independent learning. Supplemented by an Instructors' Resources guide hosted online, this text is an invaluable companion for undergraduate students eager to master the art of writing mathematical proofs.
