Customer Reviews

A thorough book bring you to a higher level of understanding Economtrics

This is so far the most "thorough" book about Econometric methods and applications, bringing you with a rather "pilot" view to the Econometric theories and methods.

The most complete book about microeconometrics

To the best of my knowledge, this book is the most complete about Microeconometrics. It is very clear and a perfect balance between theory and application. A must!

Amazing book for econometrics

This book is simply amazing. It describes tough problems in understandable words. It is definitely and advanced book and I recommend to read an introductory book such as Wooldridge or Gujarati first. Furthermore you will find not typically econometric yet very useful quantitative methods such as survival analysis or sampling methods in "Microeconometrics". I strongly recommend this book mainly for graduate and PhD students in quantitative methods and economics.

Fantastic Book for Empirical Economists

I am using this text to teach a first-year graduate course in econometrics (following a mathematical stats course) at the University of Florida. Myself and my students have been very happy with the intuitive approach of the book, and I have personally appreciated the good end-of-chapter problems that I can assign to my students. This is a GREAT addition to my library and should be on the shelf of any grad student who works with data.

Comprehensive Treatment of Microeconometrics

This book will probably not supercede Wooldridge as the standard text for panel and cross-sectional econometrics. However, it will prove more useful for the student and practitioner as I think this book is more practical. There is extensive coverage of data and of techniques like bootstrapping, that you will not find in Wooldridge. The sheer volume of material presented should be sufficient to get you going in just about any area you will encounter in the field. I think that this book should be used in conjunction with Wooldridge and should be a part of your library.
