Intermediate Statistics and Econometrics: A Comparative Approach
Dale J. Poirier Manufacturer: The MIT Press ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover Similar Items:
ASIN: 0262161494 |
Book Description
The standard introductory texts to mathematical statistics leave the Bayesian approach to be taught later in advanced topics courses -- giving students the impression that Bayesian statistics provide but a few techniques appropriate in only special circumstances. Nothing could be further from the truth, argues Dale Poirier, who has developed a course for teaching comparatively both the classical and the Bayesian approaches to econometrics. Poirier's text provides a thoroughly modern, self-contained, comprehensive, and accessible treatment of the probability and statistical foundations of econometrics with special emphasis on the linear regression model.Customer Reviews:

A Very Good Reference Book.......2004-10-01
At best a supplement text.......2004-01-21
It might be useful as a supplementary text to a book like Casella & Berger "Statistical Inference," but is definately the wrong choice as the primary source of a course.
I also agree that classical statistics does not receive a fair treatment. The focus of this book is to show the superiority of Baysian statistics.
Bought under duress.......2003-12-01
Buy this book if you really lIke pain.
Read Hogg & CRaig instead.
The book is probably great if you have already spent a decade learning the stuff from elsewhere and you just want a bOok that compiles a lot of theorems and definitions in one place.
The book is also a great piece of frequeNtist bashing, which according to me belongs elsewhere and not in an "intermediate" statistics book.
BEWARE: the errata in the book is 30 pages long (A4 size pages)AND even the errata has errors..Gasp!
please give us a table of contents.......2002-05-14

Contact Your County's Court Clerk Before Buying This Book.......1999-04-27
This book's particular problem is that it is high on filler and low on substance. For example, while the authors devote a most unnecessary section to the difficulties of reentering the dating scene, they say nothing when it comes to explicating the meaning of the important phrase "to live separate and apart." That this phrase does not preclude living under the same roof can be significant for those who are interested in expediting the two-year or 6-month waiting period.
To many, the book's most attractive feature is the many forms it has in its appendix. Unfortunately, one will find in the text only the sketchiest of details on exactly which forms one needs to file. What's even more aggravating is that a few of the forms in the appendix receive no mention in the text whatsoever. The reader should also be aware that the court clerks of some counties (e.g., Cook County) won't even accept these forms.
Contact your court clerk's office before buying this book. You might find that you've saved yourself another twenty bucks on top of the attorney's fees.

Marketing Issues in Transitional Economics (The William Davidson Institute Series on Transitional and Emerging Economies)
Manufacturer: Springer ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover ASIN: 0792384989 |
Book Description
As the markets in transitional economies open and grow, major challenges and opportunities arise for multinational firms entering these markets, local firms facing these new competitors, and policymakers seeking to increase the ability of all firms to compete fairly and efficiently. Yet despite the important questions transition economies pose for policymakers and companies seeking to enter and compete in these new markets, there has been a relative absence of systematic research on these concerns.

Coming to Terms With Accession (Forum Report of the Economic Policy Initiative No 2)
Manufacturer: Centre for Economic Policy Research ProductGroup: Book Binding: Paperback ASIN: 1898128278 |
Book Description
This report presents three perspectives on the contentious issue of the accession of the central and east European (CEE) countries to the European Union. The first chapter considers accession from the perspective of the EU and focuses on the political economy considerations. The second chapter places the issue in a larger context, arguing that the primary aspiration of the CEE countries should not be accession, but catching up with the most developed economies in the world. The final chapter maintains that the enlargement of the EU, by creating a larger common market, is beneficial both for the EU and the CEE countries.
