Excerpt from The Mathematical Theory of Investment
In preparing the manuscript, I have had the benefit of the valued criticism of my colleagues, Professors E. E. Van Vleck and L. W. Dowling, and of Mr. L. A. Anderson, Actuary for the Wisconsin Insurance Department. Professor Arnold Dresden, Dr. Florence Allen, Dr. G. R. Clements, and Mr. T. M. Simpson, who have tried out a large part of the material in the class room, have made many helpful suggestions in the selection of material and examples, and have rendered valuable assistance in verifying worked-out examples and in correcting proofs. I am also under obligations to Professor D. F. Campbell, of Armour Institute, for placing at my disposal notes and other material relating to the elements of the theory of life insurance.

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
