Stochastic Processes in Epidemic Theory - Proceedings of a Conference held in Luminy, France, October 23-29, 1988

This collection of papers gives a representative cross-selectional view of recent developments in the field. After a survey paper by C. Lefèvre, 17 other research papers look at stochastic modeling of epidemics, both from a theoretical and a statistical point of view. Some look more specifically at a particular disease such as AIDS, malaria, schistosomiasis and diabetes.

A propos de l'auteur

Jean Pierre Gabriel, Fotograf und Food-Schreiber, hat dreieinhalb Jahre lang jede Region Thailands besucht, um diese einzigartige Sammlung an Rezepten der Thaiküche zu versammeln. Während seiner Reise besuchte Gabriel die Einheimischen zu Hause, die Thaiköche in ihren Restaurants, streifte auf Märkten umher, um Köstlichkeiten in diesem Kochbuch zusammenzubringen, von einfachem thailändischem Streetfood zu elaborierter Palast-Cuisine.
