The BUGS Book A Practical Introduction to Bayesian Analysis

The BUGS Book A Practical Introduction to Bayesian Analysis

Bayesian statistical methods have become widely used for data analysis and modelling in recent years and the BUGS software has become the most popular software for Bayesian analysis worldwide. Authored by the team that originally developed this software The BUGS Book provides a practical introduction to this program and its use. The text presents complete coverage of all the functionalities of BUGS including prediction missing data model criticism and prior sensitivity. It also features a large number of worked examples and a wide range of applications from various disciplines. The book introduces regression models techniques for criticism and comparison and a wide range of modelling issues before going into the vital area of hierarchical models one of the most common applications of Bayesian methods. It deals with essentials of modelling without getting bogged down in complexity. The book emphasises model criticism model comparison sensitivity analysis to alternative priors and thoughtful choice of prior distributions all those aspects of the art of modelling that are easily overlooked in more theoretical expositions. More pragmatic than ideological the authors systematically work through the large range of tricks that reveal the real power of the BUGS software for example dealing with missing data censoring grouped data prediction ranking parameter constraints and so on. Many of the examples are biostatistical but they do not require domain knowledge and are generalisable to a wide range of other application areas. Full code and data for examples exercises and some solutions can be found on the book‘s website. | The BUGS Book A Practical Introduction to Bayesian Analysis

The Poems of Robert Browning: Volume Five The Ring and the Book Books 1-6

The Poems of Robert Browning: Volume Five The Ring and the Book Books 1-6

The Ring and the Book published serially in 1868–9 is one of the most daring and innovative poems in the English language. The story is based on the trial of an Italian nobleman Guido Franceschini for the murder of his wife Pompilia in Rome in 1698. Browning’s discovery of the ‘old yellow book’ a bundle of legal documents and letters relating to the trial on a second-hand market stall in Florence sparked an imaginative engagement with this sordid tale of domestic cruelty adultery and greed which grew through four years of arduous labour into an epic peopled not by gods and warriors but by concrete recognisably human beings. Fusing the technique of the dramatic monologue the form he had made his own with the grandeur of classical epic and the vivid realism of the modern novel Browning created a unique hybrid form that allowed him not only to bring to life an entire historical period but also to reflect on the process of artistic creation itself – the forging of the golden ‘ring’ of the poem from the ‘pure crude fact’ of its historical original. This edition comprising volumes 5 and 6 in the acclaimed Longman Annotated English Poets edition of Browning’s poems does full justice to the scope and depth of Browning’s achievement. The headnote in volume 5 gives an authoritative account of the poem’s composition publication sources and reception making use of hitherto unpublished letters and textual material. In addition to giving readers help where needed with historical and linguistic comprehension the notes track Browning’s formidable range of allusion from the most erudite to the most vulgar. The appendices in volume 6 present a selection from the original sources a list of variants from extant proofs and key passages from Browning’s fascinating and revealing correspondence with one of the earliest readers of the poem Julia Wedgwood. The aim is to enable readers not just to understand the poem as an object of study but to take pleasure in its abounding intellectual and emotional energies. | The Poems of Robert Browning: Volume Five The Ring and the Book Books 1-6

Discovering Group Theory A Transition to Advanced Mathematics

Discovering Group Theory A Transition to Advanced Mathematics

Discovering Group Theory: A Transition to Advanced Mathematics presents the usual material that is found in a first course on groups and then does a bit more. The book is intended for students who find the kind of reasoning in abstract mathematics courses unfamiliar and need extra support in this transition to advanced mathematics. The book gives a number of examples of groups and subgroups including permutation groups dihedral groups and groups of integer residue classes. The book goes on to study cosets and finishes with the first isomorphism theorem. Very little is assumed as background knowledge on the part of the reader. Some facility in algebraic manipulation is required and a working knowledge of some of the properties of integers such as knowing how to factorize integers into prime factors. The book aims to help students with the transition from concrete to abstract mathematical thinking. | Discovering Group Theory A Transition to Advanced Mathematics
