Review
From the reviews:
"The book will find a place as essential study for researchers in this modern area of statistics. It is well written, the signposts are clearly displayed throughout, and the literature appears to be well documented." ISI Short Book Reviews, Vol. 24/1, Apr. 2004
"This is the first book to present an exhaustive and comprehensive treatment of Bayesian nonparametrics. Ghosh and Ramamoorthi present the theoretical underpinnings of nonparametric priors in a rigorous yet extremely lucid style...It is indispensable to any serious Bayesian. It is bound to become a classic in Bayesian nonparametrics." Sankhya, 2004, Vol. 66, Part 1
"This new monograph by Ghosh and Ramamoorthi fulfills the need for an advanced and complete textbook at the graduate level, dealing with the theoretical aspects of Bayesian nonparametrics and Bayesian asymptotics. This is a noteworthy book that covers, with mathematical rigor, a broad class of subjects...Bayesian Nonparametrics will give researchers in the area of nonparametric and semiparametric Bayesian inference a well-written introduction to the theoretical aspects of the discipline, and it should be considered a must for anyone interested in Bayesian asymptotics." Journal of the American Statistical Association, September 2004
"This is the first book to present an exhaustive and comprehensive treatment of Bayesian nonparametrics. Ghosh and Ramamoorthi present the theoretical underpinnings of nonparametric priors in a rigourous yet extremely lucid style. ... It is an excellent book for a serious reader ... . This book is unique in doing all this in an elegant way – the proofs are all presented in an eminently readable style. It is indispensable to any serious Bayesian. It is bound to become a classic in Bayesian nonparametrics." (Jayaram Sethuraman, Sankhya: The Indian Journal of Statistics, Vol. 66 (1), 2004)
"The style of the book is well summarized in the following quotations: ‘This monograph provides a systematic, theoretical development of the subject’. ... The book will find a place as essential study for researches in this modern area of statistics. It is well written, the signposts are clearly displayed throughout, and the literature appears to be well documented." (M. J. Crowder, Short Book Reviews, Vol. 24 (1), 2004)
"The present monograph gives a nice overview on the state of the art in Bayesian nonparametrics. ... The reader will find a huge amount of references. In conclusion, the present book can be recommended for research and advanced lectures and seminars." (Arnold Janssen, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1029, 2004)
"Nonparametrics and other infinite-dimensional problems have been difficult for Bayesians to deal with for various reasons. ... In view of all these formidable difficulties, the advances achieved in this field in recent years are truly remarkable. The book by Ghosh and Ramamoorthi discusses theoretical aspects of these advances in Bayesian nonparametrics and Bayesian asymptotics. ... The book is suggested as an introductory text at the graduate level. ... It can also serve as an excellent reference book for researchers." (Mohan Delampady, Mathematical Reviews, 2004g)
