Reviews

This book is very well written and it is a clear synthesis of the theory of discrete time dynamical processes with many applications to economics. In particular, the book contains a large number of examples and exercises, which in my opinion, make it a useful guide for students and also for researchers. Maria J. Garrido-Atienza, Mathematical Reviews

'This reviewer has all the arguments to recommend the book strongly not only to institutional libraries but also to anybody who is studying, teaching or using stochastic models. With its contents and style of presentation this attractive book will be very useful to postgraduate students in several areas, among them mathematics, statistics or probability, economics, biology or engineering.' Journal of the Royal Statistical Society
