Statistical literacy is critical for the modern researcher in
Physics and Astronomy. This book empowers researchers in these
disciplines by providing the tools they will need to analyze their
own data. Chapters in this book provide a statistical base from
which to approach new problems, including numerical advice and a
profusion of examples. The examples are engaging analyses of
real-world problems taken from modern astronomical research. The
examples are intended to be starting points for readers as they
learn to approach their own data and research questions.
Acknowledging that scientific progress now hinges on the
availability of data and the possibility to improve previous
analyses, data and code are distributed throughout the book. The
JAGS symbolic language used throughout the book makes it easy to
perform Bayesian analysis and is particularly valuable as readers
may use it in a myriad of scenarios through slight modifications.
This book is comprehensive, well written, and will surely be
regarded as a standard text in both astrostatistics and physical
statistics. Joseph M. Hilbe, President, International
Astrostatistics Association, Professor Emeritus, University of
Hawaii, and Adjunct Professor of Statistics, Arizona State
University
