From the Reviews of A User’s Guide to Principal Components

"The book is aptly and correctly named A User’s Guide. It is the kind of book that a user at any level, novice or skilled practitioner, would want to have at hand for autotutorial, for refresher, or as a general–purpose guide through the maze of modern PCA."
Technometrics

"I recommend A User’s Guide to Principal Components to anyone who is running multivariate analyses, or who contemplates performing such analyses. Those who write their own software will find the book helpful in designing better programs. Those who use off–the–shelf software will find it invaluable in interpreting the results."
