A really good book is Bayesian Data Analysis, Second Edition, by Andrew Gelman, et al.  I found it to be one of the easier to comprehend books on Bayesian statistics.  It was as "rigorous" as you might like, but I have found it absolutely useful in day to day analysis tasks.\n\nHowever, I have to admit that until I had a formal course in Bayesian Statistics, reading all the books I tried to read on the subject just didn't get to the fundamental gist.  David Draper out of the University of California, Santa Cruz is about one of the best mathematics / statistics lecturers I've ever encountered.  He put together the foundation that helped me understand the Gelman work.  But reading Gelman first helped me appreciate what I was learning from Draper.  If Draper ever finishes his book (the basis for the course notes), I'd recommend that as a good foundation for more rigorous understanding.
