From the book reviews:
This book is the result of a 2011 Workshop on Astrostatistics and Data Mining, held on the island of in La Palma. The book provides a convenient description of many new and planned datasets, with relatively succinct statistical analyses, many of which adopt a Bayesian framework. I believe the book will be most appreciated by astronomers and applied statisticians and note that the four editors include a statistician and several astronomers.
