Classical statistical theory—hypothesis testing, estimation, and the design of experiments and sample surveys—is mainly the creation of two men: Ronald A. Fisher (1890-1962) and Jerzy Neyman (1894-1981). Their contributions sometimes complemented each other, sometimes occurred in parallel, and, particularly at later stages, often were in strong opposition. The two men would not be pleased to see their names linked in this way, since throughout most of their working lives they detested each other. Nevertheless, they worked on the same problems, and through their combined efforts created a new discipline. This new book by E.L. Lehmann, himself a student of Neyman's, explores the relationship between Neyman and Fisher, as well as their interactions with other influential statisticians, and the statistical history they helped create together. Lehmann uses direct correspondence and original papers to recreate an historical account of the creation of the Neyman-Pearson Theory as well as Fisher's dissent, and other important statistical theories.

Byron exists in two incompatible dimensions: as fully-documented history, and as romantic myth. Often the myth predominates, describing him as a passionate lover, a staunch friend, a great romantic poet, a champion of the working man, a loyal author to his publisher, and a fighter for democracy who sacrificed his life for the Freedom of Greece. This book attempts to prove that the verifiable truth often proves him to be the opposite. Using letters from Byron's family, friends, and associates...

In 1816, following the scandalous collapse of his marriage, Lord Byron left England forever. His first destination was the Villa Diodati by Lake Geneva where he stayed together with Percy Bysshe Shelley, Mary Godwin, Claire Clairmont and John Polidori. Byron in Geneva focuses sharply on the poets life in the summer of that year, a famous time for meteorologists (for whom 1816 is the year without a summer), but also that crucial moment in the development of his writing when, urged on by Shelley, Byron tried to transform himself into a Romantic poet of the Wordsworthian variety. The book gives a vivid impression of what Byron thought and felt in these few months after the breakdown of his marriage, but also explores the different aspects of his nature that emerge in contact with a remarkable cast of supporting characters, which also included Madame de Staël, who presided over a famous salon in Coppet, across the lake from Geneva, and Matthew Lewis, author of the splendidly erotic `Gothic best-seller, The Monk. David Ellis sets out to challenge recent damning studies of Byron and through his meticulous exploration of the private and public life of the poet at this pivotal moment, he reasserts the value of Byrons wit, warm-heartedness, and hatred of cant.

Der erste Beitrag von Hans Schneider widmet sich Luthers Reise nach Rom, die dieser noch als Augustinermönch unternommen hat. Kenntnisse über Anlaß, Auftragsgeber, Reiseroute und Verhandlungen in Rom sind bis heute äußerst lückenhaft. Der Verfasser entwickelt auf der Basis neuer Quellen eine These zu Zeitpunkt und Zweck der Reise. Ludwig Uhlig widmet sich im zweiten Beitrag dem noch weitgehend unerforschten anthropologischen Werk von Georg Forster, und zwar anhand einer zoologischen Vorlesung, die er 1786/87 in Wilna gehalten hat. Sie gilt als Forsters gründlichste Arbeit zur Anthropologie. Der Beitrag von Karin Reich wirft neues Licht auf das Verhältnis von Carl Friedrich Gauß zu Leonhard Euler im Zusammenhang eines lange unbekannt gebliebenen Aufsatzes von Euler "Démonstration De la somme de la Suite". Gauß' Abschrift, die lange als verschollen galt, wurde 2009 von Elena Roussanova im Petersburger Archiv der Rußländischen Akademie wiederentdeckt. In der vorliegenden Abhandlung wird sie als Faksimile und in Transkription publiziert und analysiert. In Werner Lehfeldts Beitrag wird auf der Grundlage bisher weitestgehend unbeachtet gebliebener Dokumente die Geschichte von Gauß' Beschäftigung mit der russischen Sprache nachgezeichnet. Es wird deutlich, daß seine zeitweise intensive Beschäftigung mit der russischen Sprache und Literatur eine wichtige Facette der geistigen Physiognomie des "princeps mathematicorum" ausmachen.
