Statistical Papers of George Udny Yule. (Born 1871 - Died 1951).

1st. Edn. Large 8vo. (26cm. tall x 18cm.). pp. viii, 447. With portrait frontispiece. A biographical sketch is followed by 12 significant papers of Yule. These form three distinct groups. Firstly his important papers on the theory of association and correlation. Secondly his epidemiological papers and the negative binomial distribution. Thirdly his fundamental work on time-series, in which autoregressive series were first studies. A bibliography of his papers concludes this Centenary Memorial Volume. A near fine hardback copy in the original silver lettered blue simulated leather. The unclipped wrapper shows random rubbing but is otherwise sound and very good.
