"The mathematics needed to advance the social and behavioral sciences most surely differs from what has proved to be successful for the physical sciences. This book addresses the need to develop appropriate mathematical tools that, rather than designed for exactness, reflect the current status for much of the social and behavioral science, which requires qualitative predictors"--
