Bayesian Social Science Statistics: Volume 2


This Element introduces the basics of Bayesian regression modeling using modern computational tools. This Element only assumes that the reader has taken a basic statistics course and has seen Bayesian inference at the introductory level of Gill and Bao (2024). Some matrix algebra knowledge is assumed but the authors walk carefully through the necessary structures at the start of this Element. At the end of the process readers will fully understand how Bayesian regression models are developed and estimated, including linear and nonlinear versions. The sections cover theoretical principles and real-world applications in order to provide motivation and intuition. Because Bayesian methods are intricately tied to software, code in R and Python is provided throughout.

Himmler’s Curtains


For the first eighteen years of Simon Weisz’s life his parents were at pains to keep their past concealed from him. All he knew for sure was that they had grown up in Hungary and that they had arrived in Britain after the Second World War. It was only as he reached manhood that they started to confide their carefully guarded secrets to him: that they were Jewish, and that his mother had experienced the appalling horrors of Nazi persecution. In conversations over the following decades, Simon’s mother gradually, often reluctantly, revealed more of her past: from the growing oppression her family had had to endure in the late 1930s, to her deportation first to Auschwitz and then to Ravensbrück, to the brutal death march she withstood from the ruins of Berlin in 1945. As he pieced her testimony together, Simon came to realise how the memories she had fought so hard to suppress continued to haunt her in the form of terrifying flashbacks and moments of extreme frustration and anger. And he started to understand how her concealed trauma had, in turn, shaped his own development and the course of his life. Himmler’s Curtains is both a visceral account of a Holocaust survivor’s experiences, and an impressive study of the impact of suffering on two generations of a family. It also movingly reveals the high psychological price exacted by silence.

Cleethorpes


Cleethorpes was originally three small farming and fishing hamlets on the Lincolnshire coast, which later combined and eventually developed into a thriving seaside resort. This book examines the early history of the hamlets, and the reader is taken on a journey through their years as a quiet bathing place, when transport posed difficulties to potential holidaymakers. The railway revolutionised Cleethorpes, making it a favourite venue for the inhabitants of nearby manufacturing districts. The railway company became Cleethorpes' leading developer, creating a bustling Victorian resort. In the 20th century the Cleethorpes municipal authority superseded the railway company as resort developer, carrying out an enterprising programme of resort expansion. The author describes the resort's attractions, which in its heyday lured multitudes of visitors. In later decades, Cleethorpes' trade fluctuated dramatically, but there are promising signs of an up-turn in the resort's prospects as it enters the 21st century. Thoroughly researched and beautifully illustrated, Cleethorpes: The Creation of a Seaside Resort is essential reading for residents and visitors alike.

Psychopathy in Adolescence and its Consequences in Adulthood


What becomes of young people who display strong psychopathy traits? By combining cutting-edge research with interviews from over 500 incarcerated youth assessed for psychopathy and involved in serious, violent offenses, this book investigates whether they are destined to persist in crime throughout their lives. Evan McCuish explores not only long-term offending patterns but also psychopathy's influence on relationships, employment, substance use, and mortality. Through this, the text clarifies the meaning of the clinical construct of psychopathy and debunks myths and misconceptions popularised by the true crime genre. This allows readers to more reliably interpret the accuracy of popular culture descriptions of psychopathy. Synthesising over 100 years of research, this book defines psychopathy and contributes new knowledge to the field. It is ideal for students, scholars, and practitioners in psychology, criminology, social work, and law seeking further insight into this intriguing disorder.
