Textual Statistics with R comprehensively covers the main
multidimensional methods in textual statistics supported by a
specially-written package in R. Methods discussed include
correspondence analysis, clustering, and multiple factor analysis
for contigency tables. Each method is illuminated by applications.
The book is aimed at researchers and students in statistics, social
sciences, hiistory, literature and linguistics. The book will be of
interest to anyone from practitioners needing to extract
information from texts to students in the field of massive data,
where the ability to process textual data is becoming essential.

The literature on asset accumulation by households draws a sharp
distinction between "short-run" precautionary motives to buffer
annual consumption from annual labor income shocks, and "long-run"
life cycle considerations under labor income certainty. However,
empirical estimates of the persistence of shocks to annual incomes
imply that households are subject to considerable career
uncertainty. We study long-run precautionary motives for life-cycle
wealth accumulation and portfolio choice. We compute optimal
portfolios under three sources of uncertainty (stock returns,
incomes, and lifespan), and explore the separate contributions of
several key factors for mean and median asset holdings, including
education, risk aversion, household heterogeneity, utility from
bequests, time preference, and variance and serial correlation of
income shocks. Numerical solutions for households in three
education groups are compared with data from the most recent and
comprehensive source, the 1992 Survey of Consumer Finances.
This paper addresses three questions about the prospects for the
U.S. current account deficit. Is it sustainable in the long term?
If not, how long will it take for measures of external debt and
debt service to reach levels that could prompt some pullback by
global investors? And if and when such levels are breached, how
readily would asset prices respond and the current account start to
narrow?

CORRESPONDENT OF THE DAILY TELEGRAPH D APPLETON CENTURY COMPANY
INCORPORATED AUTHORS PREFACE TO THE ENGLISH EDITION THIS book is
not a history that is to say, it is not a chronological procession
of the facts which have occurred during the life of the Third
Republic from 1870 to our own times. It is rather an attempt to
reconstruct the atmosphere of the successive periods, or, as it is
fashionable to say now, the social climates of the last
half-century or so. The atmosphere of a period is something so very
peculiar to it that it is not at all easy to recapture or define.
It may be described as the sum-total obtained by adding together
the historical facts, the social occur rences, and the most trivial
details of the life of a people at any given moment. All kinds of
things must necessarily come into such a microcosm clothes, changes
of manners and social habit, ways of thought and turns of phrase,
fashions in sentiment, conceptions of life and death, philosophical
and religious beliefs, and . material pre occupations of every sort
and kind. If fashions in food and clothes reveal the character of
an epoch, a zest for pleasure and a contempt for suffering do so no
less. We might call the picture obtained by assembling these traits
the physiognomy of a period taken over a century or so, it gives us
the atmosphere. The reader of this book will not find an
explanation of exactly how M Clemenceau got into power for the
first time, or just why General Boulanger failed to bring off a
coup d itat, nor will he learnhow the Allies won the war of 1914.
But he will discover what men were feeling and saying about the
Panama crisis what sort of hold Boulanger had over the people and
what life was like behind the front during the years 19 14-1 8, and
in that VI PARISIAN MEMORIES It will be noticed that the thing
which most of all conveys the exact feeling of an epoch is often
something very trivial and elusive a certain fact, a certain mani
festation of sentiment, not very significant in itself, but
cropping up repeatedly in a number of places. It may be just a
catchword or a phrase, but it reveals a state of mind. Those words
so universally repeated during the war, whenever and wherever the
Germans were under discussion, Us ne faster ont fas and On les aura
at once created and enshrined the national temper. Among the
trivial but characteristic social occurrences which bear and give
the hall-mark to their time may be mentioned, among sartorial
matters, the appearance of women in bloomers, which survived the
bicycling craze and became a symbol of feminine emancipation. The
disappearance of the tall hat and the frock-coat after the war
similarly marks the coming of less formal and more democratic
manners. The atmosphere of every period has something about it
which invests all the figures of the time, a kind of uniform tint
which colours them all. Everything about the year 1935 reflects the
prevailing disquiet. Social, moral, and political unrest agitates
every class of society, and it is quite impossible to escape from
it. The unrest of the Boulangist period was something quite
different there was a gaiety and light-heartedness about the
period, and even the unrest found its characteristic outlet
instreet-songs. The post-war years reflected a gaiety of a quite
different kind, a savage determination to make up for the terrible
years just passed, through, the unchaining of discipline and
restraint, and few people could resist being caught up in it. One
could go on indefinitely citing such examples every page of history
bears witness to the climate in which it was written. The authors
sole intention in these pages is to recapture these different and
successive atmospheres...
