Bayesian Methods: A Social and Behavioral Sciences Approach, Third Edition

By Jeff Gill

Book Overview

The third edition of this bestseller focuses more on implementation details of the procedures and less on justifying procedures. It includes new chapters on Bayesian decision theory and the practical implementation of MCMC methods using the BUGS software. It also expands the chapter on hierarchical models, presents many new applications from a variety of social science disciplines, and doubles the number of exercises. The author's website provides new datasets, code, and procedures for calling BUGS packages from R.
