Critics Review
Review from previous edition Providing a clear rationale for some of the most widely used procedures.'European Journal of Engineering EducationThis small (less than 200 pages) but much-needed book contains a wealth of worked-out numerical examples of Bayesian treatments of data, expounded from a theoretical standpoint identical to ours. It should be considered an adjunct to the present work, supplying a great deal of practical advice for the beginner, at an elementary level that will be grasped readily by every science or engineering student.‘Ed Jaynes in ‘Probability Theory: The Logic of Science’, CUP 2003
