What an extraordinary range of topics this book covers, all very insightfully. I like [the authors’] innovations very much, including the AR factor table.” –David Findley, Senior Mathematical Statistician, US Census Bureau (retired)
"… impressive coverage of the scope of time series analysis in both frequency and time domain … … I commend the authors for having included a number of topics on nonstationary processes (e.g., time-varying spectrum, wavelets), ...an excellent textbook …” —Hernando Ombao, Journal of the American Statistical Association
". . . the book is a good introductory or reference text for practitioners or those new to time series analysis. The chapters are easy to read, and the distinction between applied and theoretical examples throughout helps to cement knowledge for these two distinct groups." —Rebecca Killick, Mathematics & Statistics Department, Lancaster University
" . . . this book has much to recommend it for that audience. Coverage is quite thorough and up to date. There is an emphasis on the selection and evaluation of models which is very welcome, and not always found in statistics textbooks directed at non-statisticians." —Robert W. Hayden, Mathematical Association of America
"I find the structure of the book very convincing: First, the more basic models are spelled out, second, the forecasting purpose is dealt with, third, estimation and related inferential issues are covered, before an extension (to the multivariate case and more demanding models) is tackled. Each chapter concludes with an exercise section, typically containing theoretical problems as well as applied problems, where the latter build on R; moreover, R commands are explained in separate sections. Further, the book contains over 100 examples." —Uwe Hassler, Stat Papers
