ABSTRACT
In the earlier chapters we have from t ime to t ime given out l ine i l lustrat ive examples. These were inc luded to exemplify very specific technical points and the background details of the examples were therefore kept to a bare m i n i m u m . W e now describe a number of appl icat ions i n greater depth. W h i l e i t is not feasible to expla in a l l the considerations that enter into the analysis and interpretat ion of re lat ively complex sets of data, not least because of the crucia l significance of background subject-matter considerations, we have t r ied i n this chapter to give enough deta i l bo th to make the exam ples in t r ins ica l ly interesting and to form the basis for some general conclusions about strategies for analysis set out i n Chap te r 7.
