More DescriptionIncorporating changes in theory and highlighting new applications, this book presents a concise, accessible, and comprehensive introduction to the methods of this valuable simulation technique. This second edition includes many new examples in the chapters on Gibbs sampling and Metropolis-Hastings algorithms. It incorporates all the recent developments in MCMC, including reversible jump, slice sampling, bridge sampling, path sampling, multiple-try, and delayed rejection. It also features many worked examples and discusses computation using both R and WinBUGS. With additional exercises and selected solutions within the text, it offers all data sets and software for download from the Web.
