In 1951, the geneticist Luigi Luca Cavalli-Sforza was teaching in Parma when a student told him about rich church records of demography and marriages between relatives. After convincing the Church to open its records, Cavalli-Sforza, Moroni, and Gianna Zei embarked on a landmark study. This book assembles and analyzes the team's research.

The continuum hypothesis, introduced by mathematician George Cantor in 1877, states that there is no set of numbers between the integers and real numbers. It was later included as the first of mathematician David Hilbert's twenty-three unsolved math problems. In this book, Kurt Godel sets forth his proof for this problem.

Using numerous biological examples to lay the groundwork for a unifying theory applicable to predator-prey, parasitoid-host, and other consumer-resource interactions, this book focuses on how the properties of real organisms affect population dynamics. It synthesizes and extends the authors' own models involving insect parasitoids and their hosts.

Nye uses energy as a touchstone to examine the lives of ordinary people engaged in normal activities.

Based on von Neumann's lecture notes, this book begins with the development of the axioms of continuous geometry, dimension theory, and - for the irreducible case - the function D(a). The properties of regular rings are then discussed, and a variety of results are presented for lattices that are continuous geometries.

Splines, both interpolatory and smoothing, have a long and rich history that has largely been application driven. This book unifies these constructions in a comprehensive and accessible way, drawing from various methods and applications to show how they arise naturally in the theory of linear control systems.

Focuses on the philosophical relationship between mathematics and the natural sciences. This title shows that the axioms needed for the mathematics used in physics can also generate practically various fields of contemporary pure mathematics. It also provides a foundation for investigations in string theory and other areas of physics.
