## Texts for Your Shelf


The following are three texts I have recommended in the past to folks who are interested in doing Bayesian data analysis. They can be seen as introduction, intermediate, and advanced respectively.

Kruschke, J. (2014) *Doing Bayesian Data Analysis*. A very introductory text, but might be good for those not too confident in statistics generally speaking. And who doesn't like puppies? 2nd Edition.

McElreath, R. (2020). *Statistical Rethinking*.  A great modeling book in general, by one who has contributed a lot to helping others learn Stan and Bayesian analysis. 2nd Edition.

Gelman, A., Carlin, J. B., Stern, H. S., Dunson, D. B., Vehtari, A., and Rubin, D. B. (2013). *Bayesian Data Analysis*. 3rd Edition.
