{"product_id":"extreme-value-distributions-samuel-kotz-9781860942242","title":"Extreme Value Distributions","description":"This important book provides an up-to-date comprehensive and down-to-earth survey of the theory and practice of extreme value distributions -- one of the most prominent success stories of modern applied probability and statistics. Originated by E J Gumbel in the early forties as a tool for predicting floods, extreme value distributions evolved during the last 50 years into a coherent theory with applications in practically all fields of human endeavor where maximal or minimal values (the so-called extremes) are of relevance. The book is of usefulness both for a beginner with a limited probabilistic background and to expert in the field.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Samuel Kotz, Saralees Nadarajah\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1860942245\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781860942242\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Imperial College Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/10\/2000\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 196\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.50d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eScitech Book News\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/01\/2001 pg. 41","brand":"Samuel Kotz","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43939035218175,"sku":"9781860942242","price":78.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_a3be299e-285d-4622-8aef-cac817fa28c8.jpg?v=1681439115","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/extreme-value-distributions-samuel-kotz-9781860942242","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
