From the reviews:
"This witty, erudite, and surprisingly practical book is made up of ten chapters. . A central topic of the book is the relationship between statistical inference and the inverse problems that define Bayesian (subjective) statistics. . This excellent book will be valuable to scientists of various stripes, statisticians, numerical analysts, those who work in image processing, and those who implement Bayesian belief nets." (George Hacken, ACM Computing Reviews, Vol. 49 (11), November, 2008)
"Introduction to Bayesian Scientific Computing is a 200-page, easily accessible, pleasant introduction fusing Bayesian approaches with numerical linear algebra methods for inverse problems . . What I like most about this book is the apparent enthusiasm of the authors and their genuine interest in explaining rather than showing off. This enthusiasm is contagious, and the result is very readable." (Uri Ascher, The Mathematical Intelligencer, Vol. 31 (1), 2009)

The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
