Bayesian statistics uses information from past experience to infer the results of future events. With recent advances in computing power and the development of computer intensive methods for statistical estimation, Bayesian approaches to model estimation have become more feasible and popular.

The use of Bayesian methods for the analysis of data has grown substantially in areas as diverse as applied statistics, psychology, economics and medical science. Bayesian Methods for Categorical Data sets out to demystify modern Bayesian methods, making them accessible to students and researchers alike.
