Louis Albert Fischer and William Parry's classic text on the weights and measures of the United States is an essential resource for anyone working in a scientific or technical field. First published in 1913, the book is an exhaustive survey of state and federal laws regulating the use of weights and measures, as well as a review of the science behind these measurements. The authors also provide practical advice for those in the field and a wealth of historical and philosophical context for the significance of measuring in human societies.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.This work is in the "public domain in the United States of America, and possibly other nations.

This fascinating account of Lord Byron's final days is a must-read for anyone interested in the life of this legendary figure. Drawing on a range of primary sources, including Byron's own letters and journals, Parry provides a vivid and insightful account of the poet's thoughts and feelings during this tumultuous period. This book is a valuable addition to any Byron enthusiast's library.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.This work is in the "public domain in the United States of America, and possibly other nations.

Of the many accounts of Lord Byron's mission to Greece and his death at Missolonghi in 1824, very few were by eyewitnesses. This 1825 book by William Parry (1773-1859) is an important and detailed narrative of Byron's last days and death, and of the creation of a myth.
The isomorphism problem of ergodic theory has been extensively studied since Kolmogorov's introduction of entropy into the subject and especially since Ornstein's solution for Bernoulli processes. Much of this research has been in the abstract measure-theoretic setting of pure ergodic theory. However, there has been growing interest in isomorphisms of a more restrictive and perhaps more realistic nature which recognize and respect the state structure of processes in various ways. These notes give an account of some recent developments in this direction. A special feature is the frequent use of the information function as an invariant in a variety of special isomorphism problems. Lecturers and postgraduates in mathematics and research workers in communication engineering will find this book of use and interest.
Since the 1930s ergodic theory has been central to pure mathematics. This introduction provides sections on the classical ergodic theorems, topological dynamics, uniform distribution, Martingales, information theory and entropy. There is a chapter on mixing and one on special examples.
