#Here are some useful books:
Also, Gamerman, Dani: Markov Chain Monte Carlo (Chapman & Hall, 1997).
For reversible jump MCMC on models with varying numbers of parameters, I
have found the paper by Dellaportas, Forster and Ntzoufras to be
unusually useful...Dellaportas P., Forster J.J., Ntzoufras I. (2000). On
Bayesian Model and Variable Selection Using MCMC. To appear in
Statistics and Computing. This used to be on his website but (I am
pleased to note) has now been accepted for publication. If you contact
Petros directly you can probably get a copy:
