Time Series Models: 2nd Edition

Book Description

Time Series Models is a companion volume to Andrew Harvey's highly successful Econometric Analysis of Time Series. It takes students to another level from the first book, focusing on the estimation, testing, and specification of both univariate and multivariate time series models. The emphasis is on understanding how time series are analyzed and models constructed. Familiarity with calculus, linear algebra, and statistical interference is assumed.

Although Time Series Models pairs well with Harvey's earlier text, it is self-contained. For the second edition, the author has added new sections on nonlinear models, unit roots, structural time series models, intervention analysis, and cointegration. He has addressed new developments, rearranged some material, and changed the emphasis in certain areas.

Andrew C. Harvey is Professor of Econometrics in the Department of Statistics and Mathematical Sciences at the London School of Economics and Political Science.

Customer Reviews:

Finally, a good book on time series.......2006-07-17

If you are looking for a good introductory time series book, this is the place to go. It starts out with introductory concepts, all the while walking the reader through the problems. It is a marked improvement over a competing volume by Walter Enders, which may offer a higher level of technical detail but lacks accessibility to the starting time series researcher, and doesn't develop concepts nearly as well as this volume.

Book Description

Market Response Models: Econometric and Time Series Analysis is the leading source of information on the use of market response models for planning and forecasting. It has served as a text for graduate students in marketing, as a guide for marketing scientists and as a handbook for marketing professionals. In each case the purpose has been the same: capture the excitement and power of a technique so advanced it has literally changed the style of marketing mix decision making.
Now, in its second edition, the authors have provided a thoroughly-updated version for a new generation of marketing scholars and managers. From advances in technology and science to the recognition of database and Internet-age marketing, Market Response Models builds on its reputation as the authoritative text in its field.
The emergence of market response as an essential tool for world-class marketing has made this book even more relevant to practicing managers. Today no one can ignore the competitive edge that market response gives to companies: it is both the high-end of data mining and the basis for decision support. The fact that sales forecasts and marketing decisions can be improved with market response models is just one more reason that companies need to understand-and use-this technique.
As in the first edition, Market Response Models:

integrates state-of-the-art technical material with discussions of its relevance to management.
provides continuity to a decades-long research stream.
illustrates how marketing generalizations are the basis of marketing theory and knowledge.
shows how research can be applied to marketing planning and forecasting.
presents original research in marketing.

This second edition of Market Response Models:

places much more emphasis on the basic building blocks of market response modeling: markets, data, and sales drivers, through a separate chapter.
splits the design of response models into separate chapters on static and dynamic models.
discusses techniques and findings spawned by the marketing information revolution, e.g., scanner data.
emphasizes new insights available on marketing sales drivers, especially improved understanding of sales promotion.
demonstrates methodological developments to assess long-term impacts, where present, of current marketing efforts.
includes a new chapter on sales forecasting.
adds mini-case histories in the form of boxed inserts entitled Industry Perspectives, which are primarily written by business executives.

This book is truly the foundation of market response modeling.

A Must Read for Managers!.......1999-02-15

This is an extremely well written explanation of one of the latest and best management theories. One of the things I liked best about this book is the explanation of the major management trends of the past and how they brought business to the point it is today. Most management books simply tell one what to do, but this book tells the background of the problems we face, then goes on to explain very clearly how they can be solved.

Leading With Knowledge is a thought-provoking read!

Book Description

These papers discuss the reform efforts in African economies during the 1980s and early 1990s. Experiences across the continent are discussed, but with a particular emphasis on those socialist countries which most strongly embraced statist economic policies in the 1980s and hence initiated reforms with pervasive state intervention. This volume addresses macroeconomic issues and the reform and privatization of state enterprises as these countries attempted to adjust the role of the state in moving away from state-led development strategies.

Book Description

One of the major effects of the continual process of European integration is the growing importance of transnational institutions and the accompanying legal harmonization. Such institutional changes have led to a seemingly irreversible transformation in public decision making, whereby power at the national level is displaced to the European and regional levels. This essential book provides a law and economics analysis of the challenges arising from these shifts in authority.

The process of harmonization is investigated from a normative point of view, in order to examine whether a uniform legal framework should be promoted. On the positive side, the goal is to assess the efficiency of this process and its impact on public policies. The authors then turn to applied issues and propose an agenda for future research. The book comprehensively covers both private and public law, as well as applied and theoretical issues. The authors analyze the legal debate from a new political economy perspective, offering diverse and sometimes contrasting views.

Book Description

Harmonizing Europe analyzes factors that both drive and impede the establishment of transnational markets, such as the European Union--EU, NAFTA or MERCOSUR. The author argues that the fit between domestic institutions (namely, the legal and administrative legacies of nation states, and the organization of interest groups) and the rules and regulations of transnational markets determines the degree to which transnational markets find their way into member states and become reality. By turning to the European Union and two of its directives (equal pay and air pollution), Duina explores the driving forces behind the implementation of such directives, the ability of institutional theory to explain political and social events, and the determining factors in the fate of environmental and gender policies in transnational markets.

Customer Reviews:

A remarkable offering.......2000-08-31

In "Harmonizing Europe," Duina and his unique perspective facilitate his ability to do a splendid job of concentrating on the intricacies involved with the merger of Europe into one, more uniform, entity. His detailed analysis of the effects of equal pay and environmental issues on the EU is enlightening. As we move into an era of more political, economic, and social mergers between nations along the lines of NAFTA, ASEAN, CARICOM, etc, this book serves as a model for understanding these phenomenons.

European Union is seen through painfully detailed examen.......1999-08-02

It is not easy to understand a totally new experiment like the one putting together many States with so different racial and cultural background. There are no previous examples to use as reference. Duina decided to take a very detailed picture of a moment in the EU evolution. If we had more pictures like this, that would allow the assembly of a movie, the closest thing man has devised to link together actual information and time. The book is very clearly designed and assembled, an excellent example of normative science implementation.
