{"product_id":"bayesian-analysis-for-the-social-simon-jackman-9780470011546","title":"Bayesian Analysis for the Social Sciences","description":"Bayesian methods are increasingly being used in the social sciences, as the problems encountered lend themselves so naturally to the subjective qualities of Bayesian methodology. This book provides an accessible introduction to Bayesian methods, tailored specifically for social science students. It contains lots of real examples from political science, psychology, sociology, and economics, exercises in all chapters, and detailed descriptions of all the key concepts, without assuming any background in statistics beyond a first course. It features examples of how to implement the methods using WinBUGS - the most-widely used Bayesian analysis software in the world - and R - an open-source statistical software. The book is supported by a Website featuring WinBUGS and R code, and data sets.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Simon Jackman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0470011548\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780470011546\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Wiley\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/01\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 608\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.55lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.80h x 6.80w x 1.50d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/01\/2010 pg. 93","brand":"Simon Jackman","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44119724163327,"sku":"9780470011546","price":101.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b7cfe350-1daa-45c0-97d1-8b1e6b37fb3d.jpg?v=1687410628","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/bayesian-analysis-for-the-social-simon-jackman-9780470011546","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
