Nonlinear Time Series

This is the first book that integrates useful parametric and nonparametric techniques with time series modeling and prediction, the two important goals of time series analysis. Such a book will benefit researchers and practitioners in various fields such as econometricians, meteorologists, biologists, among others who wish to learn useful time series methods within a short period of time. The book also intends to serve as a reference or text book for graduate students in statistics and econometrics.

From the reviews:

The book will particularly appeal to those in the economic sciences and financial engineering who have a solid background in linear time series models and methods. I would recommend it to postgraduate students who are interested in learning about recent developments in non-linear and non-parametric time series modelling as well as in understanding the use of complex parametric non-linear and non-parametric time series models in practice.
