Bayes' Rule with Python: A Tutorial Introduction to Bayesian Analysis

Good solid book, however the "With Python" was misleading. There was no large datasets being handled by python. Python was used to accept input parameters, do a simple calculation, and out to the screen an answer. Basic from decades ago would have sufficed.

So easy to understand with easy examples throughout.

The explanations are very clear and as an introductory text it looks very good, and is what I wanted in a book on Bayes. The Python is, I think, largely irrelevant, but it's there. It doesn't detract from the text.My only, but important gripe is that this text does not re-size the font like a kindle book should. This is more like a PDF viewed via Kindle. One of the main reasons I choose Kindle books is for their readability and portability. This does not meet my readability requirement. You can zoom the text, but that is not the same.If it weren't for the re-sizing I would give 5 stars.

This book is exactly what you would expect from an educational point of view. It explains things progressively.The examples given in Python are sufficient because the most important thing is to understand the theory through small and evolving examples. As soon as my reading is finished, I'm already looking forward to buying the next one in the collection. The goal is to discover Bayes' theorem and with this book, the goal is reached.Ce livre est exactement ce qu'on attend d'un point de vue pédagogique. Il explique progressivement les choses.Les exemples données en Python sont suffisants car le plus important est de comprendre la théorie par de petits exemples évolutifs. Dès que ma lecture sera terminée, je suis déjà impatient d'acheter le prochain parmi la collection. Le but est de découvrir le théorème de Bayes et avec ce livre, l'objectif est atteint.

This is an excellent introduction to Bayesian statistics. Even if you are experienced.

Does what it says on the tin, well.
