Hardbound. A comprehensive reference work for teaching at graduate level and research in empirical finance. The chapters cover a wide range of statistical and probabilistic methods applied to a variety of financial methods and are written by internationally renowned experts.

Now in its fourth edition, this landmark text" "provides a fresh, accessible and well-written introduction to the subject. With a rigorous pedagogical framework, which sets it apart from comparable texts, the latest edition features an expanded website providing numerous real life data sets and examples.

"Advances in Econometrics and Quantitative Economics" is a comprehensive guide to the statistical methods used in econometrics and quantitative economics. Bringing together contributions from those acknowledged to be amongst the world's leading econometricians and statisticians this volume covers topics such as:

* Semiparametric and non-parametric interference.
* Multivariate analysis.
* Diagnostic tests.
* Time series behavior of commodity prices.
* Applications of Edgeworth expansions and quantitative methods in development economics.

The book is dedicated to Professor C. R. Rao, whose unique contribution to the subject has influenced econometricians for many years.

This important reference work offers readers, researchers and students a thoughtful, balanced selection of core articles from the voluminous literature on panel data. The Econometrics of Panel Data will be welcomed by econometricians and economists as a central reference point and guide to current thinking. The first volume features work on variance components model, its extensions and applications, estimation of variances, dynamic models, instrumental variable estimators and random coefficient models. The second volume covers errors in variables and incomplete data, specification tests, limited dependent variables, frontier production functions and some practical problems with panel data. G.S. Maddala has chosen a series of key contributions by leading econometricians which guide the reader through the literature. As well as reproducing the central articles and papers, intact with their original pagination, the editor provides a comprehensive introduction and additional references which will allow students and researchers to pursue their studies further.

This book presents the econometric analysis of single equation and simultaneous equation models where the jointly dependent variables can be continuous, categorical, or truncated.

Time series analysis has undergone many changes during recent years with the advent of unit roots and cointegration. This textbook by G. S. Maddala and In-Moo Kim is based on a successful lecture program and provides a comprehensive review of these topics as well as structural change. G. S. Maddala is one of the most distinguished writers of graduate and undergraduate econometrics textbooks today and Unit Roots, Cointegration and Structural Change represents a major contribution that will be of interest both to specialists and graduate and undergraduate students.

This book presents the econometric analysis of single-equation and simultaneous-equation models in which the jointly dependent variables can be continuous, categorical, or truncated. Despite the traditional emphasis on continuous variables in econometrics, many of the economic variables encountered in practice are categorical (those for which a suitable category can be found but where no actual measurement exists) or truncated (those that can be observed only in certain ranges). Such variables are involved, for example, in models of occupational choice, choice of tenure in housing, and choice of type of schooling. Models with regulated prices and rationing, and models for program evaluation, also represent areas of application for the techniques presented by the author.
