This epic tale, told in short story form, follows the Lichborne, an entity of great power on a singular mission. The Lichborne’s sole purpose is to restore the Law of Balance, which has been subverted by the Dark One. This subversion of a cosmic law must be rectified, and the eternal war ended. Thus, the Lichborne is neither hero nor foe, but the world''s only true hope for survival. Eighteen years ago, the Hero of Light, Nellael Dragonheart, triumphantly defeated the Dark One. A year later, that victory was for nought. Despite warnings from Nellael, the Dark One forged an alliance with ancient evil in the east across the Drakken Sea. She rescinded her mantle as the Hero of Light, returned the sword of Heroes, Calendarr, and disappeared. Seventeen years later, the Dark One is making a return. His true power lies with Nellael, a secret known only to a few. Nellael must come to her senses, face her past and future, and forge a path forward in the present as the final incarnation of the Lichborne. Will she succeed in saving the world as its heroine once more, or will she doom it to destruction as its herald of the end of days? Parts 1-4 are free. Begin your journey now.

Bayesian Nonparametrics for Causal Inference and Missing Data provides an overview of flexible Bayesian nonparametric (BNP) methods for modeling joint or conditional distributions and functional relationships, and their interplay with causal inference and missing data. This book emphasizes the importance of making untestable assumptions to identify estimands of interest, such as missing at random assumption for missing data and unconfoundedness for causal inference in observational studies. Unlike parametric methods, the BNP approach can account for possible violations of assumptions and minimize concerns about model misspecification. The overall strategy is to first specify BNP models for observed data and then to specify additional uncheckable assumptions to identify estimands of interest. The book is divided into three parts. Part I develops the key concepts in causal inference and missing data and reviews relevant concepts in Bayesian inference. Part II introduces the fundamental BNP tools required to address causal inference and missing data problems. Part III shows how the BNP approach can be applied in a variety of case studies. The datasets in the case studies come from electronic health records data, survey data, cohort studies, and randomized clinical trials. Features • Thorough discussion of both BNP and its interplay with causal inference and missing data • How to use BNP and g-computation for causal inference and non-ignorable missingness • How to derive and calibrate sensitivity parameters to assess sensitivity to deviations from uncheckable causal and/or missingness assumptions • Detailed case studies illustrating the application of BNP methods to causal inference and missing data • R code and/or packages to implement BNP in causal inference and missing data problems The book is primarily aimed at researchers and graduate students from statistics and biostatistics. It will also serve as a useful practical reference for mathematically sophisticated epidemiologists and medical researchers.

One of the most significant challenges in archaeology is understanding how (and why) humans migrate. Homo Migrans examines the past, present, and future states of migration and mobility studies in archaeological discourse. Contributors draw on revolutionary twenty-first-century advances in genetics, isotope studies, and data manipulation that have resolved longstanding debates about past human movement and have helped clarify the relationships between archaeological remains and human behavior and identity. These emerging techniques have also pressed archaeologists and historians to develop models that responsibly incorporate method, theory, and data in ways that honor the complexity of human behavior and relationships. This volume articulates the challenges that lie ahead as scholars draw from genomic studies, computational science, social theory, cognitive and evolutionary studies, environmental history, and network analysis to clarify the nature of human migration in world history. With case studies focusing on European and Mediterranean history and prehistory (as well as global history), Homo Migrans presents integrated methodologies and analyses that will interest any scholar researching migration and mobility in the human past.

Christianity has been a blight upon the individual for centuries. Unlike our ancestors who could do nothing but watch in horror as its followers spread its message with fire and steel, we have the unique privilege of standing up to these bronze-aged brutes and the only thing they can do about it is throw a veritable temper tantrum- much in the same manner as a spoiled child who has been told "no" for the first time in his life. The key to the non-believer''s continued success against religion is a solid foundation of logic and the ability to articulate it through debate. To this, the christians have no valid response. If we can create a mainstream culture of reason and logic, we can effectively inoculate the world against the spreading virus of Christianity and beat back its fascist advances. If you want to become effective in the art of debating theists, or if you are looking for the courage to leave your faith, then this book was written for you.

On 11 March 1943, the Chief of the British Imperial General Staff, Field Marshal Sir Alan Brooke, made a momentous decision in committing an entire British armored division, the 79th, to the task of developing equipment, tactics, and capabilities to penetrate the “Atlantic Wall,” in anticipation of an Allied amphibious invasion of northwest Europe. British leaders chose Major-General Sir Percy Hobart to command this division, largely because of Hobart’s affinity for leading and training armored formations, but also due to Hobart’s reputation as an individualist, known to seek out unique solutions to unforeseen challenges. This thesis examines the wartime history of this unit—concentrating on aspects of equipment, tactics, organization and leadership that enabled it to ultimately succeed beyond anyone’s expectations. More important, this organization provides valuable lessons for current transformation efforts. The key lessons that this subject provide include: the need for leadership that combines vision with action; a close cooperation between the military-industrial complex and the end user; and allowing space in the force structure for a unit that can perform not only standard combat missions, but can also serve as experimentation test-bed and conduit for new ideas, whether in the form of capabilities, organizational structure, or doctrine.
