Product Review
'I am deeply impressed by this articulate, outstanding work. It has the same high level of precision as Poirier's 1995 text on intermediate statistics and econometrics for MIT Press. The authors have taken the time and effort to explain as much as possible. Chapter 14 on latent variable models is probably the most important chapter offering new work. The authors' explanations are extensive for each of their models, and a reader who is interested in just one of the models will not have to rely on the results from any of the other models.' Frank Kleibergen, Brown University 'This is a very well written book on Bayesian econometrics with rigorous derivations and exercises. It will indeed be a book that is on the required reading list for an advanced course on Bayesian econometrics. The books by Poirier and Lancaster [Blackwell, 2004] do not have the nice set of exercises presented here.' Herman van Dijk, Erasmus University, Netherlands
Product Review
This is an excellent addition to a well conceived and motivated series. Written by three prolific and mature contributors to modern Bayesian econometrics, it is well organized, clear, concise, and comprehensive. Combined with its associated web site, which provides the related computer programs, it is complementary to currently available Bayesian econometrics texts and dramatically lowers the cost of learning and using modern Bayesian econometric methods. -- Pravin K. Trivedi, Indiana University
Koop, Poirier and Tobias have constructed a set of exercises in Bayesian econometrics and exposited these and their solutions with the exceptional clarity and good sense that one associates with these authors. A number of these exercises are of interest in their own right and, taken together, they will all provide a valuable complement to the introductory texts in Bayesian econometrics that have recently appeared on the market. -- Anthony Lancaster, Brown University
For the econometrician new to Bayesian methods, both the narrative and the exercises in this volume will expand conceptual horizons and establish new ways of thinking about econometrics. For the novice practitioner, the exercises provide an accessible bridge from theory to application. Experienced Bayesian practitioners will enjoy and benefit from testing their mettle on the wide selection of models treated in the book. Instructors at all levels will find material here that enhances classroom and computer laboratory experience. -- John Geweke, University of Iowa
