Multiway Analysis In Chemistry

Description:
This book is an introduction to the field of multi-way analysis for chemists and chemometricians. Its emphasis is on the ideas behind the method and its pratical applications. Sufficient mathematical background is given to provide a solid understanding of the ideas behind the method. There are currently no other books on the market which deal with this method from the viewpoint of its applications in chemistry. Applicable in many areas of chemistry. No comparable volume currently available. The field is becoming increasingly important.

Review:
'...covers some very important topics in modern chemical data analysis...this book is a reasonable place to start. I know of no others.' (Technometrics, November 2005) 'It will be a valuable addition to the library collections at universities and companies.' (E-STREAMS, September 2005) '...extremely useful...' (Journal of Chemometrics, Vol 19 (2), February 2005)
