The purpose of this department is to give sufficient information about the subjectmatter of each publication to enable users to decide whether to read it. It is our inten-tion to cover all books, articles, and other materials in the field.

Books for abstracting and eventual review should be sent to this department.Materials should be sent to Duncan J. Melville, Department of Mathematics, ComputerScience and Statistics, St. Lawrence University, Canton, NY 13617, U.S.A. (e-mail:[email protected]).

Readers are invited to send reprints, autoabstracts, corrections, additions, andnotices of publications that have been overlooked. Be sure to include completebibliographic information, as well as transliteration and translation for non-Europeanlanguages. We need volunteers willing to cover one or more journals for thisdepartment.

In order to facilitate reference and indexing, entries are given abstract numberswhich appear at the end following the symbol #. A triple numbering system is used:the first number indicates the volume, the second the issue number, and the third thesequential number within that issue. For example, the abstracts for Volume 30, Number1, are numbered: 30.1.1, 30.1.2, 30.1.3, etc.

The initials in parentheses at the end of an entry indicate the abstractor. In this issuethere are abstracts by Timothy B. Carroll (Ypsilanti, MI), Larry D’Antonio (Mahwah,NJ), Laura Martini, Kim Plofker, and Duncan J. Melville.

Boston: DocentPress, 2010, x+267 pp. Nomography, or the graphical representation of classes of functionsas an aid to computation, had its hey-day between the late 19th century and mid-20th cen-tury.

Journal Électronique d’Histoire desProbabilités et de la Statistique/Electronic Journal for History of Probability and Statistics6 (1) (2010), 20 pp. The concept of dispersion changed its significance in changing its con-text from observational errors to individuals within a population. The article examines this


change and the emergence, within the German School of variability of chances, of a two-dimensional concept of variability in terms of consistency and stability. (KP) #38.4.51

In particular, Maxwell is seen as developing a mathematical rhet-oric. For example, the energy of an electrical system can be represented as a two dimen-sional integral over surfaces or a three dimensional integral over space. These integralsare numerically equivalent, but represent different ways of describing the energy; eitheras charges on surfaces or as a strain between the surfaces.
