"The intended audience of the book are mathematics undergraduates taking a one semester course on time series. . . The authors frame learning time series primarily by extending concepts from linear models. Personally, I favour this approach, since it allows the book to clearly signpost similarities and differences between concepts in both topics and provides a natural learning progression from what most undergraduate students will already be familiar with . . .This book successfully delivers a practical tool-based approach to time series analysis at an introductory level, complementing the existing texts from the authors, which are aimed at a more advanced audience."~Matthew Nunes, Journal Times Series Analysis
