Who Is Fourier?
Daring to be Different
Author:Jonathan Davis;
Who is the most successful investment manager in Britain? Arguments could rage for hours, but no professional would dispute that Anthony Bolton of Fidelity is right up there at the top of the tree. £1,000 invested in his Special Situations fund at its launch in 1979 would today be worth £80,000. No other mainstream UK fund manager has put together such a consistently impressive performance over such a long period.
The 80-fold increase represents an average compound growth rate of 19% per annum, [7%] more than the equivalent market index over the same period. This track record is every bit as good as that recorded by American investment superstars such as Warren Buffett and Peter Lynch. The Fidelity Special Situations fund is now the largest and most popular fund in the UK, with more than £3.6 billion of assets.
What are the secrets of Boltons success? In this important new book, published to coincide with the 25th anniversary of the launch of the Fidelity Special Situations fund, Jonathan Davis, investment columnist of The Independent since 1995, and editor of Intelligent Investor, takes an in-depth look at the way that Bolton goes about his business and analyses in detail the performance of the fund over the past 25 years.
In a separate 10,000 word section Anthony Bolton gives his own personal account of the history of the fund, explains why he believes his contrarian stockpicking methods have worked so well for so long and discloses how he handles the pressures of being the best-known fund manager in London. This book will be required reading for anyone with a personal or professional interest in investment.
Probability and Random Processes: Problems and Solutions
Author:Geoffrey Grimmett;David Stirzaker
Elementary Differential Equations and Boundary Value Problems
Author: William E. Boyce;Richard C. DiPrima
Written primarily for undergraduate students of mathematics, science, or engineering, who typically take a course on differential equations during their first or second year. The main prerequisite is a working knowledge of calculus.
The environment in which instructors teach, and students learn differential equations has changed enormously in the past few years and continues to evolve at a rapid pace. Computing equipment of some kind, whether a graphing calculator, a notebook computer, or a desktop workstation is available to most students. The seventh edition of this classic text reflects this changing environment, while at the same time, it maintains its great strengths - a contemporary approach, flexible chapter construction, clear exposition, and outstanding problems. In addition many new problems have been added and a reorganisation of the material makes the concepts even clearer and more comprehensible.
Like its predecessors, this edition is written from the viewpoint of the applied mathematician, focusing both on the theory and the practical applications of differential equations as they apply to engineering and the sciences.
