The expanded examples reflect this updated approach.
New to the Third Edition
A chapter on Bayesian decision theory, covering Bayesian and frequentist decision theory as well as the connection of empirical Bayes with James-Stein estimationA chapter on the practical implementation of MCMC methods using the BUGS softwareGreatly expanded chapter on hierarchical models that shows how this area is well suited to the Bayesian paradigmMany new applications from a variety of social science disciplines Double the number of exercises, with 20 now in each chapterUpdated BaM package in R, including new datasets, code, and procedures for calling BUGS packages from R
This bestselling, highly praised text continues to be suitable for a range of courses, including an introductory course or a computing-centered course. It shows students in the social and behavioral sciences how to use Bayesian methods in practice, preparing them for sophisticated, real-world work in the field.
