Cowman Index to Actuarial Literature 1889-1989 1

Cowman Index to Actuarial Literature 1 1889-1989 This index, entitled “Index to Actuarial Literature 1889-1989,” was compiled by Edward F.Cowman, a Fellow of the Society of Actuaries. The title of this index implies a greater breadth than it encompasses. However, it does contain in alphabetical order by subject and author a complete index to the following publications: (1) Transactions of the Actuarial Society of America (1989-1949; Vols. 1-50) (2) Record of the American Institute of Actuaries (1909-1949; Vols. 1-38) (3) Transactions of the Society of Actuaries (1949-1987; Vols. 1-39) (4) Record of the Society of Actuaries (1976-1987; Vols. 1-13) (5) Transactions of the Society of Actuaries Reports (1952-1982) (6) The Actuary (March, 1967 – April, 1989; Vol. 1, No. 1 – Vol. 23, No. 4) Actually, this compilation contains two separate indices: an index to publications (1) – (5) above, and a separate index to The Actuary. In both subject and author listings the entries appear in chronological order by each publication. Introduction to the Cowman Index to Actuarial Literature In addition to being a subject index, the work provides ready reference to all discussion, papers, and other contributions by each author. An “*” after the last name in references in TSA and RSA generally indicates that the contributor is/was not a member of the Society of Actuaries. Contributors identified in that manner may, however, be/have been members of other actuarial organizations. There is one entry per line in the index. Each line is in the following format: Publication / volume / page / type code / title For example, consider the following entry – rsa 9 151 d - health services companies In this example, “rsa” is the publication abbreviation “9” is the publication volume “151” is the page of the volume of the publication “d” is the type code “health services companies” is the title of, in this case, the discussion Publication abbreviations are: raia = Record of the American Institute of Actuaries rsa = Record of the Society of Actuaries tasa = Transactions of the American Society of Actuaries tsa = Transactions of the Society of Actuaries tsar = Transactions of the Society of Actuaries Reports Cowman Index to Actuarial Literature 2 1889-1989 Volume and page are self-explanatory. Type Codes are: a = address ap = presidential address b = book br = book review d = discussion l = letter mp = panel member p = paper po = poem rp = report Title may be followed by “ - & ” and a name. In this case “name” is a joint contributor to discussion, book review, or paper. Furthermore, title may be followed by a “/”. The material following hyphen is a continued reference. The entries under either contributor of subject headings are, in general, in ascending order by reference volume and page within publication. For some reference purposes there is some advantage to present entries for a single publication together in chronological order. A more ideal order for entries under subject headings would be alphabetic on keyword. However, at the present time the material is not organized around keywords. Rather, titles in entries appear for the most part just as they do in the publication. Participation as a panel member or panel moderator has not been consistently distinguished from other discussion in other discussion in the TSA and the first 12 volumes of the RSA. This should perhaps be incorporated at some point. When other topics should be consulted to fully research a subject the heading “See-” followed by related subject entries will appear under the topic heading. Thus, “See-” in this index has the same meaning as the “See also-” in most indices. The symbol “#” following volume number of a number of a reference indicates more detailed subject topics which have been added to those of the original published indices. This notation also indicates brief references to indicated topics appearing in material not captioned with that particular heading. The symbol appears in column 8. An “R” in the same position indicates a reference only to the indicated subject. A “B” could perhaps be used to indicate a bibliographical reference to the listed paper, discussion, etc. In Volume 2 of the TSA there are two parts – part 1 is for March, 1950 and Part 2 is for June 1950. In the index these parts are denoted by “tsa 2.1 and tsa 2.2”, respectively, in the left margin. For the most part, reference to a contributor’s discussion is just to the first instance of such. This is particularly true of RSA volumes. More complete referenced appear for early volumes of TSA. Also reference to a paper author’s discussion of his/her paper does not appear when such discussion immediately follows the paper itself and the discussion of others on the paper. Of course, in volume 2 of TSA the discussion is not always immediately following the paper. In this case only, the page number on which such discussion begins is always noted. Cowman Index to Actuarial Literature 3 1889-1989 The four Numbers of Volume 1 of the TASA are numbered separately and therefore the separate page numbering is retained in this index. For example TASA 1.4 is a reference to Volume 1, Number 4.
