Northampton Patronage and Policy at the Court of James I First published in 1982 Northampton is a modern study of Henry Howard Earl of Northampton privy councillor to James I. Dr. Peck convincingly challenges the traditional eminence grise who stirred factional strife at court undermined relations between king and parliament and stopped at nothing including murder to secure his family’s advancement. Drawing extensively on Northampton’s papers Dr. Peck offers a more balanced assessment of this important Jacobean courtier who shaped policy and pursued administrative reform as avidly as he sought his own patronage and profit. Unlike traditional biographies this study is organized topically in order to examine larger issues of policy making and administration in the Jacobean period.

The Evolution of Religion and Morality Volume I This volume assesses the role of religion in cooperation and prosocial behaviour using ethnographic and experimental methods across eight different field sites. The first of two volumes presents results from the first phase of the Evolution of Religion and Morality (ERM) Project. Using a unique combination of both experimental and ethnographic methods the ERM project addresses pressing questions from the burgeoning cultural evolutionary sciences of religion: What is the relationship between religious beliefs and cooperation? When people are committed to punitive knowledgeable and morally concerned gods are they more inclined to behave prosocially towards others? How far does this prosociality extend? Do important individual and contextual factors mediate this relationship? In addition to an omnibus report this book offers seven site-specific reports that contextualize experimental and ethnographic data collected around the world. Collecting data from communities as diverse as the Hadza of Tanzania villagers from two communities on Tanna Island Vanuatu residents of Marajó Brazil Fijians from Yasawa and Lovu Tyvans from southern Siberia and Mauritians this ground-breaking work sets a new standard in the scientific study of religion.

Multilevel and Longitudinal Modeling Using Stata Volumes I and II Multilevel and Longitudinal Modeling Using Stata Fourth Edition is a complete resource for learning to model data in which observations are grouped—whether those groups are formed by a nesting structure such as children nested in classrooms or formed by repeated observations on the same individuals. This text introduces random-effects models fixed-effects models mixed-effects models marginal models dynamic models and growth-curve models all of which account for the grouped nature of these types of data. As Rabe-Hesketh and Skrondal introduce each model they explain when the model is useful its assumptions how to fit and evaluate the model using Stata and how to interpret the results. With this comprehensive coverage researchers who need to apply multilevel models will find this book to be the perfect companion. It is also the ideal text for courses in multilevel modeling because it provides examples from a variety of disciplines as well as end-of-chapter exercises that allow students to practice newly learned material.
