Analysis of Panel Data

Rezensionen / Stimmen

A masterful new edition of Hsiao's classic text on panel data. This is a superbly comprehensive and accessible source for panel data with modern approaches to inference and identification, helpful to econometricians and other quantitative social scientists. Esfandiar Maasoumi, Emery University The latest edition of Cheng Hsiao's panel data monograph is most welcome to the econometrics profession. Benefitting from Professor Hsiao's deep understanding and insight, it has, since its first edition, not only become required reading for students, researchers and practitioners, but surely deserves no small credit for the huge growth of interest and activity in panel data. In this 4th edition, Professor Hsiao has very successfully built on the foundations of the earlier ones. Peter M. Robinson, London School of Economics Professor Hsiao has done it again. This edition provides a lucid and comprehensive account of often complex problems, ranging from the analysis of panel data models with interactive effects, heterogeneity, spatial dependence, simultaneous dynamic models, to program evaluation - many areas to which he himself has made significant and lasting contributions. I have learned a great deal from the past three editions, and I very much look forward to the fourth edition and strongly recommend it to both students and research scholars of panel data alike. Hashem Pesaran, John Elliot University of Southern California Cheng Hsiao's Analysis of Panel Data has undoubtedly become the classic text book reference on panel data econometric methods. It is to be recommended for the clarity and deepness of its exposition, its wide coverage of the abundant and rapidly developing specialized literature, and its remarkable capacity to focus on what is most essential in this literature.
