Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This is a cracking book on applying R to time series analysis. The best parts of the book are all of the worked examples, the accompanying data sets and several different ways to calculate seasonality.
The book is better than most on time series, because it does not neglect the de-trending process needed to get stationery residuals. If you use just the lm() command in R to do this before, then the real gem in this book is the advice to use the gls() command from the nlme library instead (to get the confidence intervals right).
Overall, a very good book that is applied to R but has enough mathematical backing for the techniques presented. However, this is a book about applying time series analysis in R. If you seek a more algebraic treatment, then this is not the book I'm afraid, but it would be a great supplement!
