Bayesian Statistics for the Social Sciences, First Edition by David Kaplan

This book has been replaced by Bayesian Statistics for the Social Sciences, Second Edition, ISBN 978-1-4625-5354-9.

-As the name suggests, Bayesian Statistics for the Social Sciences is a valuable read for researchers, practitioners, teachers, and graduate students in the field of social sciences….Extremely accessible and incredibly delightful….The wide breadth of topics covered, along with the author's clear and engaging style of writing and inclusion of numerous examples, should provide an adequate foundation for any psychologist wishing to take a leap into Bayesian thinking. Furthermore, the technical details and analytic aspects provided in all chapters should equip readers with enough knowledge to embark on Bayesian analysis with their own research data.--Psychometrika, 03/01/2017
