Bayes Rules!: An Introduction to Applied Bayesian Modeling

An engaging, sophisticated, and fun introduction to the field of Bayesian Statistics, Bayes Rules! An Introduction to Bayesian Modeling with R brings the power of modern Bayesian thinking, modeling, and computing to a broad audience. In particular, it is an ideal resource for advanced undergraduate Statistics students and practitioners with comparable experience.

Bayes Rules! empowers readers to weave Bayesian approaches into their everyday practice. Discussions and applications are data driven. A natural progression from fundamental to multivariable, hierarchical models emphasizes a practical and generalizable model building process. The evaluation of these Bayesian models reflects the fact that a data analysis does not exist in a vacuum.
