Review Quotes: "The book will be interesting for methodologically interested researchers of many different disciplines that are interested in longitudinal research, such as demography, sociology, psychology, educational science, health research, political science, maybe also economics. ... sequence analysis reaches out to quantitative as well as qualitative researchers. This book remarks the final position in the series on books dealing with sequence analysis." (Christian Brzinsky-Fay, European Journal of Population, Vol. 35, 2019)
