| contents | This extended preface [to the Book `Bayesian Nonparametrics', Cambridge University Press, 2010, by NL Hjort, CC Holmes, P Mueller, SG Walker] is meant to explain why you are right to be curious about Bayesian nonparametrics -- why you may actually need it and how you can manage to understand it and use it. The preface also serves as an introductory chapter, giving an overview of the aims and contents of the book. We also explain the background for how the book came into existence, delve briefly on the history of the still relatively young field of Bayesian nonparametrics, and offer some concluding remarks, pertaining to various challenges and likely future developments of the area. |
