Econometrics for Economists

By Lanot Gauthier and Gauthier Lanot

Book Overview

This book is designed as a short introduction to econometrics for economists and differs from existing texts in that:

- it is succinct and user-friendly and is therefore more suitable for use on shorter modules lasting a few weeks.

- it moves beyond being a mere applied statistics book and draws upon a wealth of real world examples from economics itself - showing how econometrics can be brought to bear on the world we live in.

- the concentration is on simpler cross section models without introducing the student to complicated time series models

In the same way that other mathematical disciplines such as game theory can be taught in a less technical way, so can econometrics. This book will allow the student to grasp the basic concepts without plunging them into a world of abstract mathematics.
