"This book will fill the void for a complete, accessible text on longitudinal data analysis. ... The writing style is conversational and non-threatening. ... The author walks the readers through the examples in a way that makes them easy to follow.　 ... To have a single book that covers the complete topic of multilevel modelling related to longitudinal analysis would be exactly what I would need for my multilevel modelling course."　– Michael J. Rovine, Penn State University, USA "I would definitely … recommend it as required reading in the longitudinal analysis course. … It addresses in an accessible way, so many of the questions that non-statisticians and researchers new to longitudinal analysis ask or should ask. I have no doubt that this book will make a significant contribution to the field. I have been waiting many years for a book like this!"　–　Andrea Piccinin, University of Victoria, Canada "This book fills a gap by being more accessible than just about any other book on the topic. … [It] provides a thorough introductory treatment that will be accessible to students, while also serving as a good reference text for more experienced users. … Hoffman shows that these complex models are within the reach of any student or researcher with a basic knowledge of regression."　–　Kristopher Preacher, Vanderbilt University, USA "Dr. Hoffman offers a highly informative, comprehensive and accessible book that will be very useful to students and researchers interested in modeling multilevel and longitudinal data. The writing is very clear, incorporating necessary methodological details while using an understandable application approach."　- Lisa L. Harlow, University of Rhode Island, USA
