This books provides you the BASIC code to run a model. And it does not provide in depth knowledge, does not show you how to tune and play around with these model to get maximum results.

It' too simple for anyone who have had some experiences in this field already.

There are a fair quite a few graphs that use colour, however the book is printed in black and white. The workaround solution that the publisher chose was to give a link to download a pdf document with all the figures in colour. This is a bit lazy, the graphs should have been designed so they were readable in black and white.
