The second edition of the "Handbook of Road Safety Measures" (previously published in 2004) gives state-of-the-art summaries of current knowledge regarding the effects of 128 road safety measures. It covers all areas of road safety including: traffic control; vehicle inspection; driver training; publicity campaigns; police enforcement; and, general policy instruments. With many original chapters revised and several new ones added, extra topics covered in this edition include: post-accident care; DUI legislation and enforcement; environmental zones; and speed cameras.

A comprehensive account of the statistical theory of exponential families of stochastic processes. The book reviews the progress in the field made over the last ten years or so by the authors - two of the leading experts in the field - and several other researchers. The theory is applied to a broad spectrum of examples, covering a large number of frequently applied stochastic process models with discrete as well as continuous time. To make the reading even easier for statisticians with only a basic background in the theory of stochastic process, the first part of the book is based on classical theory of stochastic processes only, while stochastic calculus is used later. Most of the concepts and tools from stochastic calculus needed when working with inference for stochastic processes are introduced and explained without proof in an appendix. This appendix can also be used independently as an introduction to stochastic calculus for statisticians. Numerous exercises are also included.

The seventh volume in the SemStat series, Statistical Methods for Stochastic Differential Equations presents current research trends and recent developments in statistical methods for stochastic differential equations. Written to be accessible to both new students and seasoned researchers, each self-contained chapter starts with introductions to the topic at hand and builds gradually towards discussing recent research. The book covers Wiener-driven equations as well as stochastic differential equations with jumps, including continuous-time ARMA processes and COGARCH processes. It presents a spectrum of estimation methods, including nonparametric estimation as well as parametric estimation based on likelihood methods, estimating functions, and simulation techniques. Two chapters are devoted to high-frequency data. Multivariate models are also considered, including partially observed systems, asynchronous sampling, tests for simultaneous jumps, and multiscale diffusions. Statistical Methods for Stochastic Differential Equations is useful to the theoretical statistician and the probabilist who works in or intends to work in the field, as well as to the applied statistician or financial econometrician who needs the methods to analyze biological or financial time series.

En sen dag pa arbejdet graver arbejdsmanden Jakob en gammel kiste op. Kisten indeholder den gamle vampyr Istvan, en kraftfuld og gammel vampyr, som stadig er i live og takker Jakob for at have gravet ham op, hvorefter han rejser med Jakob hjem til det indre Kobenhavn. Hjemme er Jakob dog i et dysfunktionelt forhold med sin kaereste Hanne og har ikke plads til Istvan - hverken i deres lille 2'er eller i deres skaenderifyldte hverdag. Uheldigt for Jakob og Hanne laerer de hurtigt, at de har Istvans skaebne i deres haender, da Istvan fortaeller, at han ikke frivilligt er begravet i Danmark, og at hans aerkefjender er pa vej fra Rumaenien for at gore arbejdet faerdigt - og et arbejde, der ikke kun inkluderer at fange Istvan, men ogsa for at fange dem, der slap ham fri..."
