Computational techniques based on simulation have now become an essential part of the statistician's toolbox. It is thus crucial to provide statisticians with a practical understanding of those methods, and there is no better way to develop intuitio
The purpose of this book is to provide a self-contained entry into Monte Carlo computational techniques. First and foremost, it must not be confused with a programming addendum to our earlier book Monte Carlo Statistical Meth- ods whose second editi
