Practical Bayesian Inference: A Primer for Physical Scientists.

by Coryn A. L. Bailer-jones

Science is fundamentally about learning from data, and doing so in the presence of uncertainty. This volume is an introduction to the major concepts of probability and statistics, and the computational tools for analysing and interpreting data. It describes the Bayesian approach, and explains how this can be used to fit and compare models in a range of problems. Topics covered include regression, parameter estimation, model assessment, and Monte Carlo methods, as well as widely used classical methods such as regularization and hypothesis testing. The emphasis throughout is on the principles, the unifying probabilistic approach, and showing how the methods can be implemented in practice. R code (with explanations) is included and is available online, so readers can reproduce the plots and results for themselves. Aimed primarily at undergraduate and graduate students, these techniques can be applied to a wide range of data analysis problems beyond the scope of this work. Written in an informal yet precise style, suitable for a wide audience from a range of backgrounds in the physical sciences Promotes the Bayesian approach as a general framework for solving problems, but also makes comparison with frequentist methods Describes how methods can be applied in practice to the readers' own problems, so it is not simply a recipe book The R code from the book is available freely online, allowing readers to see how the theory is actually implemented and reproduce the plots and results in the book

A Practical Guide to Recovery-Oriented Practice: Tools for Transforming Mental Health Care

by Larry Davidson Michael Rowe Janis Tondora Maria J. O'Connell Martha Staeheli Lawless

This book takes a lofty vision of "recovery" and of "a life in the community" for every adult with a serious mental illness promised by the U. S. President's 2003 New Freedom Commission on Mental Health and shows the reader what is entailed in making this vision a reality. Beginning with thehistorical context of the recovery movement and its recent emergence on the center stage of mental health policy around the world, the authors then clarify various definitions of mental health recovery and address the most common misconceptiosn of recovery held by skeptical practitioners and wroriedfamilies. With this framework in place, the authors suggest fundamental principles for recovery-oreinted care, a set of concrete practice guidelines developed in and for the field, a recovery guide model of practice as an alternative to clinical case management, and tools to self-assess therecovery orientation of practices and practitioners. In doing so, this volume represents the first book to go beyond the rhetoric of recovery to its implementation in everyday practice. Much of this work was developed with the State of Connecticut's Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services, helping the state to win a #1 ranking in the recent NAMI report card on state mental health authorities. Since initial development of these principles, guidelines, and tools inConnecticut, the authors have become increasingly involved in refining and tailoring this approach for other systems of care around the globe as more and more governments, ministry leaders, system managers, practitioners, and people with serious mental illnesses nad their families embrace the needto transform mental health services to promote recovery and community inclusion. If you've wondered what all of the recent to-do has been about with the notion of "recovery" in mental health, this book explains it. In addition, it gives you an insider's view of the challenges and strategies involved in transforming to recovery and a road map to follow on the first few stepsdown this exciting, promising, and perhaps long overdue path.
