Book excerpt: You are cordially invited to accompany author Kayden Jayne West on her journey through the valley of the shadow of death. You are invited to share her emotions and inner thoughts as she experiences the effects of the death sentence pronounced upon her unborn grandson to the unparalleled exaltation she enjoys today with that 7 year old miracle child. The journey has been long, the road has been rough, but the battle has been won - proving that with God all things are possible. Kayden was living a typically normal life prior to the start of this journey. The journey begins with the doctor's cold, harsh words stating that the baby had a 0% chance of survival; the amniotic fluid was gone; the pregnancy had to be terminated, the baby's lungs could not develop and would not inflate, but would stick together at birth and the infant would not be viable; the skin would be transparent; the fingers and toes would be webbed; and the hospital saves their beds for mothers whose babies can survive. The journey ends with the prolific words of that 19 ounce, 12 inch baby - now a typical 7 year old, speaking about Gods law. Kayden's experience details her life beyond the everyday routines into the realm of faith and miracles. It allows you to walk with her through the dark times when the doctors said her grandson would not survive and through the triumphant times when God stepped in and said he would live. Kayden's faith has sustained her and she has been rewarded with God's answers many times. She can convey many personal experiences revealing the result of her faith and prayers, such as the time she stayed all night at the hospital and upon getting into her car realized that she was not physically able to drive an hour home and work the next day. She relates how she simply laid her head on the steering wheel and prayed to God - telling him that she was not able to drive home on her own, and if she got there, she would have to have his help. She doesn't really remember the drive home, but she knows it was not her hands guiding the wheel that took her safety home and through the next day at work; or the night she failed to notice her gas light was on and she was miles from the nearest station. Then, as she drove and prayed, she looked down later and the gas light was off and gas tank registered a quarter tank of gas. She knows the power of prayer and the true meaning of faith in God. Through it all, Kayden was never alone. God was always with her and she gives him all the credit for her ability to withstand the long road of fear and stress and never give up. She knows He spared the life of an unborn child who is now an instrument of God has changed the lives of so many people. Let him change your life too.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a text for a one-quarter or one-semester course in probability, aimed at students who have done a year of calculus. The book is organised so a student can learn the fundamental ideas of probability from the first three chapters without reliance on calculus. Later chapters develop these ideas further using calculus tools. The book contains more than the usual number of examples worked out in detail. The most valuable thing for students to learn from a course like this is how to pick up a probability problem in a new setting and relate it to the standard body of theory. The more they see this happen in class, and the more they do it themselves in exercises, the better. The style of the text is deliberately informal. My experience is that students learn more from intuitive explanations, diagrams, and examples than they do from theorems and proofs. So the emphasis is on problem solving rather than theory.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mathematical statistics typically represents one of the most difficult challenges in statistics, particularly for those with more applied, rather than mathematical, interests and backgrounds. Most textbooks on the subject provide little or no review of the advanced calculus topics upon which much of mathematical statistics relies and furthermore contain material that is wholly theoretical, thus presenting even greater challenges to those interested in applying advanced statistics to a specific area. Mathematical Statistics with Applications presents the background concepts and builds the technical sophistication needed to move on to more advanced studies in multivariate analysis, decision theory, stochastic processes, or computational statistics. Applications embedded within theoretical discussions clearly demonstrate the utility of the theory in a useful and relevant field of application and allow readers to avoid sudden exposure to purely theoretical materials. With its clear explanations and more than usual emphasis on applications and computation, this text reaches out to the many students and professionals more interested in the practical use of statistics to enrich their work in areas such as communications, computer science, economics, astronomy, and public health.

This book was released on 2018-08-28 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Focuses on nurturing the emotional health of patients and families to ensure improved outcomes This innovative clinical practice resource for neonatal nurses embodies family-centered care strategies for optimal outcomes through every phase of the NICU experience. While rigorous programs provide the knowledge and skills to care for the physical needs of high-risk mothers and neonates, NICU practitioners often find themselves unprepared to support the emotional health of these patients and their families. Care Coordination in the NICU provides the education, inspiration, and resources to NICU health professionals so they can learn how to be emotionally supportive to their patient’s entire family unit. The book addresses a variety of challenging patient and family issues that occur in the NICU as they relate to care coordination throughout the process. Each chapter focuses on a particular area of the perinatal/neonatal family journey, and includes current medical research, clinical examples, and recommendations for best practice alongside case studies that depict families experiencing a perinatal challenge. Most valuable of all, each chapter also includes stories directly from the source, the families, who have experienced the fear, isolation, and uncertainly of an NICU experience, and have greatly benefited from the emotional support of caring practitioners. Key Features: Examines the gamut of challenging patient and family issues that occur in the NICU as they relate to care coordination throughout the process Helps practitioners to incorporate family-centered care into their daily practices Discusses effective listening and communication strategies for families in crisis Includes examples of practice improvement strategies to improve clinical outcome and reduce the risk of re-hospitalization Provides a Case-Based Learning section depicting real-world scenarios for discussion and problem-solving Includes links to abundant resources and educational material Contains chapters on palliative care and bereavement and supporting patients with special challenges.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: And I Prayed is a memoir spanning the years of 2013-2019, during which the author's spouse battled terminal kidney cancer. During the same time period, the author suffers a seizure from a brain tumor and has brain surgery, followed one month later by her spouse also needing brain surgery due to his cancer. It details their respective medical journey's leading up to her husband's death, the year of "firsts" for her and her children, and one year after his death, her own diagnosis of cancer. It details her walk-in faith with God and how her husband's cancer battle brought him to accept Jesus for himself. It was her husband's desire that she share his testimony to encourage others faced with a similar fate, but it showcases more than that. It highlights a husband and wife's dedication to each other, perseverance through difficult life trials, and a strengthening of faith that allowed her to survive, fulfill goals, and find love again.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The last 35 years or so have witnessed a dramatic shift in the demography of many developing countries. Before 1960, there were substantial improvements in life expectancy, but fertility declines were very rare. Few people used modern contraceptives, and couples had large families. Since 1960, however, fertility rates have fallen in virtually every major geographic region of the world, for almost all political, social, and economic groups. What factors are responsible for the sharp decline in fertility? What role do child survival programs or family programs play in fertility declines? Casual observation suggests that a decline in infant and child mortality is the most important cause, but there is surprisingly little hard evidence for this conclusion. The papers in this volume explore the theoretical, methodological, and empirical dimensions of the fertility-mortality relationship. It includes several detailed case studies based on contemporary data from developing countries and on historical data from Europe and the United States.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We all like to know how reliable and how risky certain situations are, and our increasing reliance on technology has led to the need for more precise assessments than ever before. Such precision has resulted in efforts both to sharpen the notions of risk and reliability, and to quantify them. Quantification is required for normative decision-making, especially decisions pertaining to our safety and wellbeing. Increasingly in recent years Bayesian methods have become key to such quantifications. Reliability and Risk provides a comprehensive overview of the mathematical and statistical aspects of risk and reliability analysis, from a Bayesian perspective. This book sets out to change the way in which we think about reliability and survival analysis by casting them in the broader context of decision-making. This is achieved by: Providing a broad coverage of the diverse aspects of reliability, including: multivariate failure models, dynamic reliability, event history analysis, non-parametric Bayes, competing risks, co-operative and competing systems, and signature analysis. Covering the essentials of Bayesian statistics and exchangeability, enabling readers who are unfamiliar with Bayesian inference to benefit from the book. Introducing the notion of “composite reliability”, or the collective reliability of a population of items. Discussing the relationship between notions of reliability and survival analysis and econometrics and financial risk. Reliability and Risk can most profitably be used by practitioners and research workers in reliability and survivability as a source of information, reference, and open problems. It can also form the basis of a graduate level course in reliability and risk analysis for students in statistics, biostatistics, engineering (industrial, nuclear, systems), operations research, and other mathematically oriented scientists, wherein the instructor could supplement the material with examples and problems.
