“A most useful text for an econometrics course. There are not many introductions to econometrics which approach the relevant material so consistently from the viewpoint of the student. The book is also well suited for self study and can be recommended to everybody who is in need to quickly acquire the basics of the field.”

Prof. Walter Krämer, University of Dortmund
