Rezension zu „Structural Macroeconometrics “
Praise for the previous edition: "The central theme of this advanced textbook on macroeconomic time series analysis is that [dynamic stochastic general equilibrium models] ?serve directly as the foundations upon which empirical work may be conducted.? The book fulfills this aim admirably and covers standard statistical methods neatly; it is certainly worth the attention of econometricians."--Times Higher Education
