Back in the 1970's, when few people were using them, Gisèle introduced me to the arcane secrets of then advanced multivariate statistical methodologies. I was already involved in more classical statistical studies undertaken at Paris Observatory with Jean Jung: developing and applying maxim- likelihood algorithms to stellar photometric and kinematic data in order to derive absolute luminosities, distances and velocities in the solar neighborhood. But what could be envisaged with those methodologies was something of another dimension: for the first time, I could really see how to extract information from massive amounts of data without calling for elaborated physical or mechanical theories. Several pioneering applications were developed under Gisèle?s guidance and with her collaboration to study the delicate interface between spectroscopic and photometric data. Thus errors in spectral classifications were investigated as well as predictions of spectral classifications from pho- metric indices (see Heck 1976, Heck et al. 1977, Heck & Mersch 1980 and Mersch & Heck 1980), with very interesting results for the time. Gisèle also took part in studies of period determination algorithms (see Mersch & Heck 1981, Manfroid et al. 1983 and Heck et al. 1985). 410 0$aAstrophysics and Space Science Library ;$v285 606 $aCommunication in astronomy 606 $aInformation storage and retrieval systems$xAstronomy 606 $aAstronomy$xData processing 615 0$aCommunication in astronomy. 615 0$aInformation storage and retrieval systems$xAstronomy 615 0$aAstronomy$xData processing 676 $a519.5 702 $aHeck$b André 712 02$aSpringerLink (Online service) 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910783381803321 996 $aInformation handling in astronomy$93703681 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04436nam 2200745 a 450 001 9910172222303321 005 20210916032938.0 010 $a1-4008-2170-3 010 $a1-282-75224-3 010 $a9786612752247 010 $a1-4008-1227-5 024 7 $a10.1515/9781400821709 035 $a(CKB)111056486501410 035 $a(EBL)581615 035 $a(OCoLC)700688636 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000177435 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11177518 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000177435 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10216717 035 $a(PQKB)10600799 035 $a(OCoLC)51542468 035 $a(MdBmJHUP)muse36019 035 $a(DE-B1597)446116 035 $a(OCoLC)979905005 035 $a(DE-B1597)9781400821709 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL581615 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10031994 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL275224 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC581615 035 $a(EXLCZ)99111056486501410 100 $a19940823d1995 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurnn#---|u||u 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aImproving poor people $ethe welfare state, the "underclass," and urban schools as history /$fMichael B.

But this major historian of urban poverty realizes that the pain in these cities has its origins in the American past. To understand contemporary poverty, he looks particularly at an old attitude: because many nineteenth-century reformers traced extreme poverty to drink, laziness, and other forms of bad behavior, they tried to use public policy and philanthropy to improve the character of poor people, rather than to attack the structural causes of their misery. Showing how this misdiagnosis has afflicted today's welfare and educational systems, Katz draws on his own experiences to introduce each of four topics--the welfare state, the "underclass" debate, urban school reform, and the strategies of survival used by the urban poor. Uniquely informed by his personal involvement, each chapter also illustrates the interpretive power of history by focusing on a strand of social policy in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries: social welfare from the poorhouse era through the New Deal, ideas about urban poverty from the undeserving poor to the "underclass," and the emergence of public education through the radical school reform movement now at work in Chicago. Why have American governments proved unable to redesign a welfare system that will satisfy anyone? Why has public policy proved unable to eradicate poverty and prevent the deterioration of major cities? What strategies have helped poor people survive the poverty endemic to urban history? How did urban schools become unresponsive bureaucracies that fail to educate most of their students? Are there fresh, constructive ways to think about welfare, poverty, and public education? Throughout the book Katz shows how interpretations of the past, grounded in analytic history, can free us of comforting myths and help us to reframe discussions of these great public issues. 606 $aPublic welfare$zUnited States$xHistory 606 $aUrban poor$zUnited States$xHistory 606 $aUrban schools$zUnited States$xHistory 606 $aSocial history 606 $aSocial policy 615 0$aPublic welfare$xHistory. 615 0$aUrban poor$xHistory. 615 0$aUrban schools$xHistory. 615 0$aSocial history. 615 0$aSocial policy. 676 $a362.5/0973 700 $aKatz$b Michael B.$f1939-$0143530 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910172222303321 996 $aImproving poor people$91927547 997 $aUNINA
