Synopsis
This book is an introductory account of time-series analysis, examined from the perspective of an applied statistician specializing in biological applications. It includes full chapter coverage of exploratory methods, including time-plots, smoothing, the correlogram and periodgram, as well as the theory of stationary random processes, spectral analysis and regression modelling, repeated measurements, ARIMA modelling, forecasting, and bivariate time series analysis. The book emphasizes biological and medical applications, but will be particularly useful to students and practitioners of applied statistics in all fields of application, as well as to biologists whose work involves the analysis of time-series data.

Review
'Professor Diggle's writing is clear and to the point. This book is easy to read regardless of prior time series experience ... excellent addition to the time series literature in that it focuses on the analysis of real biomedical data.'
Scott L. Zeger, School of Hygiene and Public Health, Johns Hopkins University, Statistics in Medicine 10:3
'a welcome attempt to provide an introductory account with a strong biological and medical flavour ... This modestly priced and well-written paperback must be a strong competitor as an introductory text to time series analysis whether for class use or for private reading.'
Paul Davies, University of Birmingham, Royal Statistical Society News and Notes, October 1991
'The particular appeal of the book to readers of this journal will be the way in which real biological data sets are used to illuminate the theory.'
Biometrics, December 1993
