Description and Table of Contents

Description

This volume deals with the fundamental theory and principles of Bayesian inference, including estimation, hypothesis testing, and the linear model. The coverage provided overlaps with that of "Kendall's Advanced Theory of Statistics, Volumes 1 and 2" from a Bayesian viewpoint, and cross-referencing is provided where appropriate. Thinking common to both Classical and Bayesian theory is not repeated. A major source and reference, covering advanced level theory at a level which every professional statistician needs to know before specializing, the book also provides an introduction to other major fields which are covered in other books in this series. This book should be of interest to professional statisticians and statistical libraries.
