A glimpse of life
Mr. Carroll has captured nature as it truly is. Like a fine craftsman he was one with the subject and as an artist he has accurately recorded what he observed and has presented the information coherently. I'm left with an indelible, poignant legacy.

Great memoir!!
I had never heard of David Carroll until I spotted this book by accident at a local bookstore, bought it, read it, and thoroughly enjoyed it. Carroll is obsessed with turtles and writes about his lifelong pursuit of his passion with luminous prose. Highly recommended.

A primer in natural history
I found this book in the library and kept reading it so long I paid twice the cost of the book in fines. Now, I've ordered my own copy because I cannot be without it. Written in the style of Aldo Leopold's _Sand County Almanac_, this is a focused study of stream ecology, But it is not a dry book of science. It is a story of a stream through four seasons. The author writes of a place he knows ...

Carroll's book is an incredibly beautiful natural history.
David Carroll marvelously mixes the arts with science: true to his art, he is a refined Thoreau. His love and understanding for his subject is clearly evident.

The wind that talks in trees speaks pine in my ear.
It's lines like that one, along with the lines of his excellent detailed artwork, which make me love the books of David M. Carroll so much. His latest, Following the Water: A Hydromancer's Notebook, shows and tells his annual observations from the first breaks in the ice through its reforming in a New Hampshire wetland. The evocative opening page describes his winter pathways in his old house, ...

Superior NYPD novel
"Justice" is not Dan Mahoney's best novel (that would be "Black & White") but it is still a great read about the NYPD, specifically a pair of Detectives vs. a highly skilled vigilante. Considering there at at least a half dozen tv series about the same general subject (Law & Orders, CSI, etc), it is a credit to Mahoney's skill as an author to keep the reader not just interested, but fascinated by ...

don't buy this book by mistake
I bought this book by mistake, and I want to warn others to think before buying. It's not a bad book. That's not the problem. Let me explain. A friend of mine had this book that I found really engaging and I wanted my own copy. I mixed up the titles and got this book by mistake, not realizing that there were two books with almost identical titles. The book I most highly recommend is THE ...

another difficult topic in regression analysis tackled by Ray Carroll
Ray Carroll and David Ruppert are well known research statisticians who have published many joint articles on regression, weighted regression and transformation and they have also written an excellent book together on this research topic. Stefanski has recently published several papers on measurement error models with Carroll. Here they have teamed up to write a statistics text on a unique topic. ...

Good!
I purchased this volume because I was quite disappointed in some of the premill perspectives of the earlier volume. Good work, worthy of purchase. As always, however, be discriminating.

another great text by the team if Ruppert and Carroll
David Ruppert and Ray Carroll have been a research team for over 25 years. They have published many articles and books on regression analysis. These articles are always very clearly written and are great at showing the big picture and not just the nitty gritty details of the theorems that they prove. Two of my favorite books that they published are "Transformations and Weighting in Regression" ...
Sleep and Breathing in Children: Developmental Changes in Breathing During Sleep, Second Edition (Lung ...
Informa Healthcare
, 2008
Infants and children spend one- to two-thirds of their life asleep. Despite this, very little attention has been paid to understanding both normal sleep and sleep-related abnormalities during child development. This volume is devoted to breathing during sleep, its changes with development (from the fetus onwards), and the pathophysiology of sleep-related breathing disorders.
