After my husband G, S. Maddala passed away, Jo Ducey (his assistant) gave m= the manuscript he hed worked on until the last day of bis life. Looking atthe notes on his desk, I remembered how worried he was about being able to complete the revisions bofoce he died. Because I could not allow my husband's final effort to go to waste, I immediately sought the help of Kajal Lahin, my husband’ former student and long-time fiend. He graciously organized the manuscrip, incorporated my husband's revisions and ‘edited the text t provide a smooth transition between the old and new material. Labi also addressed other questions that my husband's passing left unansvtered. For instance, readers wil notice that the last tee capers do not include exercises. Prom my husband’s personal notes and computer fies, Lahiri determined that my husband intentionally omitted ‘exercises from the chapter on panel data. \s for Chaptess 16 (Lazge-Sample Theory) and 17 (Small Sample Inference: Resampling Methods), my husband didnot have thoss ready ‘atthe time of his death. We elected not to gdd new exercises, in order to preserve my hosband’s influence on the entre book. Without Lahin's immense help and advice, this book would not have been published. I am very gratefl for his hard work and dedication to this text {would also like to thank Ms. Samantha Whittaker and Mr. Stove Hardman for their valuable help and encouragement in preparing this raanusript for publication. ‘This volume is dedicated tall of G, S. Maddala's tuden, who meant so mvc to im. Kay Maddala October 2000 Preface to the Second Edition ‘There hate been many imporant developments in econometrics during the last two sdecaces, but introductory books inthe fleld sill deal masdy wlth what econometnies was inthe 1960s, The present book is meant wo familiarize students (and researchers) with some ‘of these developments, explaining em with very simple models without cluterng up the ‘exposition with too much algebraic detail. Whece proofs involve complicated expressions they are omiited end appropriate references are given. Ten of the more difficult sections Ihave beon marked with an asterisk indicaing that they ae optional. Beginning stxdents ‘can tkip them and proceed. The book also contains several examples illustrating the techniques at each stage, and wiere illustrations are not given, some datasets have been ‘provided so that students can compute the required results themselves Since the book covers quite a few topics, only a few examples have been given to illustrate eack point. Giving oo maay ilustrations fara single point might be boing for ‘some students aad woud have made the book much foo bulky. The inscucter's manual ‘contains mere illustrative examples and questions and answers, The exereoes given a the ‘end of sach chaptr are somewhat challenging. However, the instructor's manta contans snawers or guidelines, The instructor's manual also gives a “guided tour” of the material in each chapter as well 36 some detiled explanations for some points that are touched brety in the book. ‘Some ofthe questions atthe end ofthe chapters have boen ken from the examinations a several US. and U.K. universities, and from P. C. B. Phillips and M.R. Wickes, Exercises in Econometrics (Cambridge, MA; Ballinges Publishing Co. 1978), Vol (Many of the questions in that book ate from examinations in the U.K. universities) Since quo td ot oped wih nr chang, have Gt bee ge ‘the exact source for each question.
