Methods of operations research

Operations research is a scientific method of gathering information to be used in high-level military decision-making, first originating in World War II. Written by a pioneer of operations research, this volume was designed for scientists, engineers, and other non-military professionals, discussing such topics as strategical kinematics, tactical analysis, gunnery and bombardment problems, etc. Contents include: “Introduction”, “Probability”, “The Use of Measures of Effectiveness”, “Strategical Kinematics”, “Tactical Analysis”, “Gunnery and Bombardment Problems”, “Operational Experiments with Equipment and Tactics”, “Organizational and Procedural Problems”, “Tables”, etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in a modern, high-quality edition complete with the original text and artwork. This book was first published in 1951.

History

First published in 1863, “Excursions” is a collection of essays by American transcendentalist Henry David Thoreau. It contains nine essays in total, as well as a biographical sketch of Thoreau by fellow transcendentalist Ralph Waldo Emerson. The essays are: “Natural History of Massachusetts”, “A Walk to Wachusett”, “The Landlord”, “A Winter Walk”, “The Succession of Forest Trees”, “Walking”, “Autumnal Tints”, “Wild Apples”, and “Night and Moonlight”. Constituting some of Thoreau's most engaging and influential works, the essays represent the notable stages of his writing career from 1842 to 1862. Henry David Thoreau (1817 – 1862) was an American poet, philosopher, essayist, abolitionist, naturalist, development critic, and historian. He was also a leading figure in Transcendentalism. Other notable works by this author include: “The Landlord” (1843), “Reform and the Reformers” (1846–48), and “Slavery in Massachusetts” (1854). Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
