Introductory Econometrics - Intuition, Proof and Practice (Hardcover)

"Introductory Econometrics" uses an innovative approach to teach regression analysis to students who have a background in only introductory economics and statistics. Using basic algebra, this text focuses on learning the most important concepts in running regressions at an in-depth level, rather than providing more shallow coverage of a broad overview of topics. Each chapter begins with a summary of what students will learn by the end of the chapter, and follows with careful proofs and derivations that show step-by-step how the answers are reached. Using a continuing example of correlating education level and income, the Zax text is a careful, yet accessible and conversational introduction to regression analysis and introductory econometric techniques.
