Trade Review

"This book offers a comprehensive overview of time series analysis...The focus throughout is on methodologies and techniques selected to help the reader develop a working knowledge of practical applications of time series methods... The author manages to incorporate a huge number of topics and his book verges on the encyclopedic...This is a book that would likely be of more use to a serious practitioner of time series analysis than anyone coming fresh to the subject." (Mathematical Association of America 29/03/2017)

“The book has many merits, covering carefully standard basic vocabulary of recently developing time series analysis and presenting lots of illustrative examples of applications that are well organized for the reader who intends to use R libraries for numerical computation” Yuzo Hosoya, MathSciNet, Aug 2017
