Summary: This volume, first published in hardbook in 1994, presents an overview of the foundations and key theoretical concepts of Bayesian statistics. The work is written from the authors committed Bayesian perspective, but an overview of non-Bayesian theories is also provided, and each chapter contains a wide-ranging critical re-examination of controversial issues. The level of mathematics used is such that most material is accessible to readers with knowledge of advanced calculus. In particular, no knowledge of abstract measure theory is assumed, and the emphasis throughout is on statistical concepts rather than rigoro.
