One of today’s fastest growing investment and risk management mechanisms such as synthetic securitisations and structured products are revolutionizing the financial industry and changing the way banks, institutional investors, and securities traders do business both domestically and globally. While potentially beneficial, these important instruments are complex structures that are often misunderstood and frequently mishandled. This groundbreaking book offers a succinct and focused resource complete with global case studies on how they work, and how best to capitalize on them.

Achen builds a working philosophy of regression analysis that goes beyond the abstract, unrealistic treatment given in previous texts. What does it mean to say that one variable is more important than another? How can regression results be used? Achen sets out the procedures researchers employ, places them in the framework of statistical theory, and shows how good research takes account of both statistical theory and the demands of the real world.

Biblical texts create worlds of meaning and invite readers to enter them. When readers enter such textual worlds, which are strange and complex, they are confronted with theological claims. With this in mind, the purpose of the IBT series is to help serious readers in their experience of reading and interpreting by providing guides for their journeys into textual worlds. The focus of the series is not so much on the world behind the text as on the worlds created by the texts in their engagement with readers. Nowhere is the world of the biblical text stranger than in the apocalyptic literatur

Human remains recovered from archaeological sites can help us interpret lifetime events such as disease, physiological stress, injury and violent death, physical activity, tooth use, diet, and demographic history of once-living populations. This is the first comprehensive synthesis of the emerging field of bioarchaeology. A central theme is the interaction between biology and behavior, underscoring the dynamic nature of skeletal and dental tissues, and the influences of environment and culture on human biological variation. It emphasizes research results and their interpretation, covering pala
