Rezensionen

From the reviews of the second edition: "[Modern Multidimensional Scaling: Theory and Applications] is without a doubt the most comprehensive and most rigorous book on MDS...The second edition is considerably (140 pages) longer than the first, mostly because of much more material on MDS of rectangluar matrices (also known as unfolding) and MDS of asymmetric matrices is included...this is currently by far the best available book on MDS, and it is quite likely to stay in that position for a long time." Journal of Statistical Software, August 2005 "This is an updated and expanded version of the first edition ... . the exercises at the end of each chapter are an attractive feature. I can recommend the book enthusiastically." (W.J. Krzanowski, Short Book Reviews, Vol. 26 (1), 2006) "The authors provide a comprehensive treatment of multidimensional scaling (MDS), a family of statistical techniques for analyzing similarity or dissimilarity data on a set of objects. ... This book may be used as an introduction to MDS for students in psychology, sociology and marketing ... . It is also well suited for a variety of advanced courses on MDS topics." (Ivan Krivý, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1085, 2006)
