In a moderator's note earlier in this thread
(article <tbb22q$c8d$
1@gioia.aioe.org>), I referred to the book chapter
William H Press,
"Understanding Data Better with Bayesian and Global Statistical Methods"
chapter 3 (pp 49-60) in
John N Bahcall & Jeremiah P Ostriker, Eds,
"Unsolved Problems in Astrophysics"
Princeton U.P. 1977
ISBN-10 0-691-01607-0 (hc) or 0-691-01606-2 (pb)
I'm sorry, slight garble there. The publication date was 1997, not 1977.
