Modern Linear and Nonlinear Econometrics - Plasmans, Joseph

. .

Résumé :
This concise and intuitive book presents a unified approach of modern linear and nonlinear econometrics, integrating theory and practice. Every major topic has a number of examples, exercises or case studies, many involving the use of actual data that are typical for current empirical work and made available on the internet. This learning-by-doing method prepares readers to design, develop and successfully finish their own research and/or solve real-world problems....
