Practical and professional, Wooldridge's INTRODUCTORY ECONOMETRICS: A MODERN APPROACH, 4e International Edition bridges the gap between how undergraduate econometrics has traditionally been taught and how empirical researchers actually think about and apply econometric methods. The text's unique approach reflects how econometric instruction has evolved from simply describing a set of abstract recipes to showing how econometrics can be used to empirically study questions across a variety of disciplines. The systematic approach, where assumptions are introduced only as they are needed to obtain a certain result, makesthe material easier for students, and leads to better econometric practice. Unlike traditional texts, INTRODUCTORY ECONOMETRICS is organized around the type of data being analyzed – an approach that simplifies the exposition and allows a more careful discussion of assumptions. Packed with relevant applicationsand a wealth of interesting data sets, the text emphasizes examples that haveimplications for policy or provide evidence for or against economic theories.
