The Kennedy Mystique: Creating Camelot

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: America`s endless fascination with Camelot has enshrined countess pictures of Jack and Jackie Kennedy, Caroline and John-John in our national iconography, but few books have focused on their instinctive grasp of the media`s visual magic. Now, in a volume that combines arresting photography and perceptive analysis, Camelot insiders and media experts tell the whole story of the `love affair` between the Kennedys and the camera?a far more complex and sophisticated relationship than we often suppose. The Kennedy Mystique looks behind and beyond what first meets the eye, reminding readers that JFK and Jackie recognized and used the media`s power, and encouraged photographers to capture private moments as well as public events. Unique commentaries from Kennedy intimates and observers like Letitia Baldridge, Hugh Sidey and Robert Dallek provide rare perspective on the photographs as historical records, as image-management, and as symbols. Readers learn, for instance, that… [detailed...]

The Kernel Method of Test Equating (Statistics for Social Science and Public Policy)

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionKernel Equating (KE) is a powerful, modern and unified approach to test equating. It is based on a flexible family of equipercentile-like equating functions and contains the linear equating function as a special case. Any equipercentile equating method has five steps or parts. They are: 1) pre-smoothing, 2) estimation of the score-probabilities on the target population, 3) continuization, 4) computing and diagnosing the equating function, 5) computing the standard error of equating and related accuracy measures. KE brings these steps together in an organized whole rather than treating them as disparate problems. KE exploits pre-smoothing by fitting log-linear models to score data, and incorporates it into step 5) above. KE provides new tools for diagnosing a given equating function, and for comparing two or more equating functions in order to choose between them. In this book, KE is applied to the four major equating designs and to both Chain Equating and… [detailed...]

He arrives suddenly in Cairo from out of the desert, armed with a radio set, a lethal blade and a copy of Daphne du Maurier`s Rebecca - a ruthless man with a burning, relentless conviction that he will win at all costs. The stakes are high, for the survival of the British campaign in North Africa is in the balance.

Follett builds tension and suspense to a nerve-tearing pitch as he follows the adversaries across the infernal desert to a confrontation which will determine who wins - and loses - in this deathly struggle.

From The Well at the World?s End by William Morris over a century ago, to the spellbinding classics of C.S. Lewis, J.R.R. Tolkien, Ursula Le Guin, George R. Martin, J.K. Rowling, and now Linda Williams, the literary landscape of the fantasy has served as a magnet for the imagination inspired longing within all of us. It attracts us, calling us forth upon an heroic quest whereby we can hope to be magically transformed and restored to the tranquility and order which lie at the very center of every human soul. In that sense the world of fantasy is the world of myth still among us, updated by centuries of narrative tradition and the marvels of modern science. George Bernard Shaw, a great playwright of the last century, once suggested that immature artists are those who are merely influenced by their predecessors, whereas it is the sure… [detailed...]
