Rezensionen

"...researchers have at their disposal an accessible, thorough and comprehensive handbook of nonlinear dynamical systems methods, specifically oriented towards applications in psychology....Heath surveys all of the most important areas being applied in current research. The range is truly impressive, as is the adherence to examples based either on real psychological experiments or on simulations motivated by psychological questions....Heath has done the psychology community an inestimable service. This book should be on the reference shelf of every practicing researcher, not just in psychology but in the social sciences as well. I also think that it should be required reading for any advanced course in quantitative methods, particularly at the graduate level."
