Synopsis
This introductory text on the design and analysis of sample surveys emphasizes the practical aspects of survey problems. It begins with brief chapters on the role of sample surveys in the modern world. Thereafter, each chapter introduces a sample survey design or estimation procedure by describing the pertinent practical problem. The authors describe the methodology proposed for solving the problem and provide the details of the estimation procedure, including a compact presentation of the formulas needed to complete the analysis. Then, a practical example is worked out in complete detail. At the end of each chapter, a wealth of exercises gives students ample opportunity to practice the techniques and stretch their grasp of ideas., Emphasizing the practical aspects of survey problems, ELEMENTARY SURVEY SAMPLING (WITH CD-ROM) is an ideal introduction to survey sampling. The textbook first covers the role of sample surveys in the modern world, then includes individual chapters that introduce a sample survey design or estimation procedure by describing the pertinent practical problem. You'll see the methodology proposed for solving the problem and the details of the estimation procedure, including a compact presentation of the formulas needed to complete the analysis, followed by a practical example worked out in complete detail. Chapter-ending exercises give you practice with the techniques and stretch your grasp of ideas., Livre peut avoir de nombreuses fautes de frappe, le texte manquant, des images ou des index.

Extrait: ... toire des serfs et a celles des vilains, parce qu'elles precisent la situation dans laquelle ils eurent les uns et les autres a se mouvoir. i. Servitude, ou dependance? On regarde l'esclavage, c'est-a-dire la possession pleine et incontestee d'un homme par un autre a titre de chose pure et simple, comme la condition native du travailleur de bras au debut des societes. Je crois qu'il faudrait une opinion plus reduite ou moins absolue. Le fait de la complete servitude fut certainement commun; mais a-t-il ete universel? Il y aurait peut-etre plus de verite a dire que tout se reunit pour imposer la dependance au cultivateur et a l'ouvrier des premiers temps. -. Dependance -, en effet, suppose une servitude non essentiellement exclusive de toute liberte; or, .dans les premiers temps, la liberte ne manque pas partout a ce travailleur de bras. Chez plus d'un peuple, ceux du . moins auxquels notre tradition nous rattache, il eut assez de liberte pour que ce qu'on appelle la servitude puisse quelquefois sembler un mode d'association oblige. A . cela on ne saurait assimiler l'esclavage en aucun cas. L'esclavage est la forme la plus rigoureuse de la - dependance -, mais c'est la dependance seule qui a le caractere d'universalite. Elle est dans la nature des choses, en quelque sorte. Elle se presente comme un mode du salaire dans le domaine de la production, comme le moyen de s'assurer la subsistance. Mode ou moyen que les societes debutantes, grandes ou petites, sont dans la necessite de pratiquer. Depourvues de capital, soumises..

    The puzzle box was crushed because it was shipped in a padded envelope. I haven’t examined the puzzle to see if any pieces were damaged.
