Synopsis

"Sampling Uncovered" is a comprehensive guide to the art and science of sampling, providing a thorough understanding of various sampling methods and their applications. Written in a clear and engaging style, this book is an invaluable resource for researchers, students, and practitioners seeking to design and implement effective sampling strategies.

The book begins by laying the foundation of sampling, introducing basic concepts and terminology. It then delves into probability sampling methods, explaining the principles of simple random sampling, stratified sampling, cluster sampling, and systematic sampling. Additionally, it explores non-probability sampling methods, highlighting their strengths and limitations.

Moving forward, the book dedicates individual chapters to advanced sampling techniques, including adaptive sampling, spatial sampling, and detectability methods for elusive populations. These methods are becoming increasingly important in addressing complex sampling challenges and obtaining reliable data.

Recognizing the need for adaptability in sampling, the book also discusses cutting-edge sampling techniques such as double sampling, network sampling, bootstrap sampling, and Monte Carlo simulation. These techniques push the boundaries of sampling methodology and offer valuable tools for researchers seeking to optimize their sampling strategies.

Throughout the book, the authors provide numerous practical examples and case studies to illustrate the application of various sampling methods in real-world scenarios. These examples help readers grasp the nuances of sampling and make informed decisions when selecting the most appropriate method for their research or project.

"Sampling Uncovered" is more than just a technical guide; it also emphasizes the ethical considerations inherent in sampling. It explores issues such as informed consent, privacy, and the potential for bias, ensuring that readers are equipped with the knowledge and skills to conduct ethical and responsible sampling practices.

With its comprehensive coverage, clear explanations, and practical examples, "Sampling Uncovered" is an indispensable resource for anyone involved in sampling. It is a must-read for researchers, students, and practitioners seeking to enhance their understanding and skills in this fundamental aspect of statistical research.

    Discover the folklore and history of our most toxic plants. 
     
     
     
    "If you drink much from a bottle marked 'poison,' it is almost certain to disagree with you, sooner or later."—Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland 
     
     
      
    In both history and fiction, some of the most dramatic, notorious deaths have been through poisonings. Concealed and deliberate, it's a crime that requires advance planning and that for many centuries could go virtually undetected. And yet there is a fine line between healing and killing: the difference lies only in the dosage! In Botanical Curses and Poisons, Fez Inkwright returns to folkloric and historical archives to reveal the fascinating, untold stories behind a variety of lethal plants, witching herbs, and funghi. Going from A to Z, she covers everything from apple (think of the poisoned fruit in "Snow White") and the hallucinogenic angel's trumpet to laurel, which emits toxic fumes, to oleander (a deadly ornamental shrub), with each plant beautifully illustrated by the author herself. This enthralling treasury is packed with insight, lore, and the revealed mysteries of everyday flora—including the prevalence of poisoning in ancient Rome, its use in religion and magic, and common antidotes—making this perfect for gardeners, writers, folklorists, witches, and scientists alike!
