Time Series Analysis, 2nd Edition is a thorough introduction to
both time-domain and frequency-domain analyses of univariate and
multivariate time series methods, with coverage of the most
recently developed techniques in the field. With its broad coverage
of methodology, it is a useful reference for those in applied
sciences where analysis and research of time series is useful. Its
plentiful examples show the operational details and purpose of a
variety of univariate and multivariate time series methods.
Numerous figures, tables and real-life time series data sets
illustrate the models and methods useful for analyzing, modeling,
and forecasting data collected sequentially in time. It offers a
balanced treatment between theory and applications. This title is

This volume grew out of the annual Advertising and Consumer
Psychology conference sponsored by the Society for Consumer
Psychology. Representing a collection of research from academics in
the fields of social psychology, advertising, and marketing, the
chapters all focus on discussing existing and needed research to
face the challenges of diversity in the next millennium. The
contributors are researchers who have pushed the envelope in
understanding diversity in advertising, rather than merely relying
on theoretical frameworks developed decades ago when the
demographics of the population were much different.
This volume provides a vast array of information for academics and
practitioners seeking to better understand how individual
characteristics impact on the sending, receiving, and processing of
communication efforts. It highlights past and current knowledge on
diversity in advertising, important questions that have not been
addressed satisfactorily in this area, and how current theories can
be used to construct better communication plans and message
content. The various chapters draw upon existing literature from
the fields of psychology, marketing, and related disciplines to
amplify understanding and insight into developing effective
advertising approaches to reach diverse audiences. This book will
contribute to the understanding of the diversity of people, the
changing landscape of the U.S., and the need for a more inclusive
society.

continually creating new challenges for the professionals involved.
New concepts, approaches and techniques of systems development
emerge constantly in this field. Progress in ISD comes from
research as well as from practice. This conference will discuss
issues pertaining to information systems development (ISD) in the
inter-networked digital economy. Participants will include
researchers, both experienced and novice, from industry and
academia, as well as students and practitioners. Themes will
include methods and approaches for ISD; ISD education;
philosophical, ethical, and sociological aspects of ISD; as well as
specialized tracks such as: distributed software development, ISD
and knowledge management, ISD and electronic business / electronic
government, ISD in public sector organizations, IOS.

Providing the most comprehensive examination to date of Asians in
the Centennial State, William Wei addresses a wide range of
experiences, from anti-Chinese riots in late nineteenth-century
Denver to the World War II incarceration of Japanese Americans at
the Amache concentration camp to the more recent influx of
Southeast Asian refugees and South Asian tech professionals.
Drawing on a wealth of historical sources, Wei reconstructs what
life was like for the early Chinese and Japanese pioneers, and he
pays special attention to the different challenges faced by those
in urban versus rural areas. The result is a groundbreaking
approach that helps us better understand how Asians survived—and
thrived—in an often hostile environment. Offering a fresh
perspective on how cycles of persecution are repeated, Wei reveals
how the treatment of Asian Americans resonates with the experiences
of other marginalized groups in American society. His study sheds
light not only on the Asian American experience but also on the
development of Colorado and the greater American West.
This is an excellent book, which will be of value to all those
health professionals seeking to demystify the sometimes
intimidating area of research. Well organised, comprehensive, and
clearly written, it is indeed a 'handbook'; it has a clear, step by
step approach with many practical examples. It is suitable for
researchers across the range of health disciplines, and the authors
are to be congratulated for what will become an important
resource.Professor Frank Oberklaid, Director, Centre for Community
Child HealthUniversity of Melbourne/Royal Children's HospitalThis
book will clearly be a great help to young, and to some extent,
experienced research workers focusing on epidemiological and
clinical questions framed either in terms of the broad community or
patient groups. I recommend it warmly.Professor Stephen Leeder,
Dean, Faculty of Medicine, University of SydneyHigh quality
clinical research is a cornerstone of effective health care and
much good research is undertaken by clinicians. Yet many of the
resources available on research methods are highly theoretical and
inaccessible.Written in a user-friendly style by a team of
experienced clinical researchers, Health Science Research guides
readers through the fundamentals of clinical inquiry. It outlines
the steps needed to plan a study, recruit and select subjects,
gather and analyse data, and report on results. The authors also
explain how to deal ethically with interviewees, and how to prepare
a grant application.Health Science Research is an indispensable
guide for anyone who needs to undertake a clinical study, including
physicians, nurses, allied health workers, scientists and research
assistants.Jennifer Peat is Hospital Statistician in the Clinical
Epidemiology Unit at the New Children's Hospital, Westmead, and
Associate Professor in the Department of Paediatrics and Child
Health at the University of Sydney. Katrina Williams and Professor
Craig Mellis are from the same Hospital and Department, and Wei
Xuan is from the Department of Medicine, University of Sydney.
