Introductory Econometrics: A Practical Approach (2nd edn), by Hamid R Seddighi (Routledge, New York, 2012), pp 385

Abstract

'Introductory Econometrics: A Practical Approach' is most aptly named. It explains step by step the applications of econometric methods in practice. The text also discusses the key econometric issues in a non-mathematical way and provides a summary of key issues in econometrics. The book covers all econometric topics for typical undergraduate courses: the classical regression model, simultaneous equations, qualitative variables and panel data, time series econometrics and the like. One of the attractive features of this book is that its 16 topics are grouped into five teaching units. This gives both lecturers and students guidance in teaching as well as in studying the subject.
