The ASA-SIAM series will be housed at booth #404 in the exhibit hall during JSM 2010, where attendees can shop for books at 20%–30% off list prices and get free shipping.
In past years, attendees were invited to visit the booth and complete a short survey about the book series in exchange for a giveaway such as a tote bag or flashlight. This year, the survey tradition continues, but instead of a small gift, completing a survey will entitle attendees to an entry into a raffle for an iPod Touch. The winner’s name will be chosen on August 4 (entrants do not need not be present to win).
For those considering a book project of their own, Sara Murphy and some of the members of the series’ editorial board will be onsite to talk about ideas and how to go about submitting a proposal. Books appropriate for the series include research monographs, introductory texts, and graduate-level textbooks on topics of interest to statisticians, biostatisticians, applied mathematicians, engineers, and scientists. To arrange a time to talk about a project, contact Murphy at murphy@siam.org prior to JSM.
