Abstract
This Second Edition of Myles Hollander and Douglas A. Wolfe's successful Nonparametric Statistical Methods meets the needs of a new generation of users, with completely up-to-date coverage of this important statistical area. Like its predecessor, the revised edition, along with its companion ftp site, aims to equip readers with the conceptual and technical skills necessary to select and apply the appropriate procedures for a given situation. An extensive array of examples drawn from actual experiments illustrates clearly how to use nonparametric approaches to handle one- or two-sample location and dispersion problems, dichotomous data, and one-way and two-way layout problems. An ideal text for an upper-level undergraduate or first-year graduate course, Nonparametric Statistical Methods, Second Edition is also an invaluable source for professionals who want to keep abreast of the latest developments within this dynamic branch of modern statistics.

A bi-objective model to optimize reliability and cost of system with a choice of redundancy strategies

TL;DR: Two effective multi-objective metaheuristic algorithms named non-dominated sorting genetic algorithms (NSGA-II and multi- objective particle swarm optimization (MOPSO) are proposed and the performance of the algorithms is analyzed on a typical case and conclusions are demonstrated.

Evaluation of the effects of oral colostrum supplementation during the first fourteen days on the health and performance of preweaned calves

TL;DR: Results indicated that calf diarrhea was associated with low serum IgG levels and low-weight calves and Supplemental colostrum during the first 2 wk of life can reduce diarrheal disease in preweaned calves on calf ranches and thereby reduce the amount of antimicrobial treatments needed.

Progestin-Induced Apoptosis in the Macaque Ovarian Epithelium: Differential Regulation of Transforming Growth Factor-β

TL;DR: A possible biologic mechanism for the protective association between OC use and reduced ovarian cancer risk is suggested and TGF-beta expression and apoptosis, as determined by morphology and histochemistry, is examined in ovarian epithelium.

Predicting Outcome to Chemotherapy in Patients With Germ Cell Tumors: The Value of the Rate of Decline of Human Chorionic Gonadotrophin and Alpha-Fetoprotein During Therapy

TL;DR: The rate of marker decline during chemotherapy has prognostic value independent of risk and may play a significant role in the management of poor-risk patients.
