The Birth of Science

Alex Ely Kossovsky is the author of the books "BENFORD'S LAW: Theory, the General Law of Relative Quantities, and Forensic Fraud Detection Applications," "STUDIES IN BENFORD'S LAW: Arithmetical Tugs of War, Quantitative Partition Models, Prime Numbers, Exponential Growth Series, and Data Forensics," and "SMALL IS BEAUTIFUL: Why the Small is Numerous but the Big is Rare in the World." Kossovsky is the inventor of a patented mathematical algorithm used in data fraud detection and analysis, and is considered by some to be the world's leading expert on the topic of Benford's law and its many applications. The author specialized in Applied Mathematics and Statistics at the City University of New York and in Physics and Pure Mathematics at the State University of New York at Stony Brook.
