+     "Bayesian network analysis is a form of probabilistic graphical models
+which derives from empirical data a directed acyclic graph, DAG, describing
+the dependency structure between random variables.  An additive Bayesian
+network model consists of a form of a DAG where each node comprises a
+@dfn{generalized linear model} (GLM).  Additive Bayesian network models are
+equivalent to Bayesian multivariate regression using graphical modelling, they
+generalises the usual multivariable regression, GLM, to multiple dependent
+variables.  This package provides routines to help determine optimal Bayesian
+network models for a given data set, where these models are used to identify
+statistical dependencies in messy, complex data.")
