Michael Mitchell’s Interpreting and Visualizing Regression Models Using Stata is a clear treatment of how to carefully present results from model-fitting in a wide variety of settings. It is a boon to anyone who has to present the tangible meaning of a complex model in a clear fashion, regardless of the audience. As an example, many experienced researchers start to squirm when asked to give a simple explanation of the practical meaning of interactions in nonlinear models such as logistic regression. The techniques presented in Mitchells book make answering those questions easy. The overarching theme of the book is Author: Michael N. Mitchell that graphs make interpreting even the most complicated models containing interaction terms, categorical variables, Publisher: Stata Press and other intricacies straightforward.

Multilevel and Longitudinal Modeling Using Stata, Third Edition, by Sophia Rabe-Hesketh and Anders Skrondal, looks specifically at Stata’s treatment of generalized linear mixed models, also known as multilevel or hierarchical models. These models are “mixed” because they allow fixed and random effects, and they are “generalized” because they are appropriate for continuous Gaussian responses as well as binary, count, and other types of limited dependent variables.

About 240 years ago, an English clergyman named Thomas Bayes developed a method to calculate the chances of uncertain events in the light of accumulating evidence. Though this method has extensive applications to the work of economists, it is only recent advances in computing that have it possible to exploit its full power. In this new and expanding area, Tony Lancaster’s text provides a comprehensive introduction to the Bayesian way of doing applied economics. Using clear explanations and practical illustrations and problems, the text presents innovative, computer-intensive ways for applied economists to use the Author: Tony Lancaster Bayesian method. In addition, each chapter includes numerical and graphical examples and demonstrates their Publisher: Blackwell Publishing solutions using the S programming language and bugs Pages: 416 pages software.

Econometric Modeling provides a new and stimulating introduction to econometrics, focusing on modelling. The key issue confronting empirical economics is to establish sustainable relationships that are both supported by data and interpretable from economic theory. The unified likelihood-based approach of this book gives students the required statistical foundations of estimation and inference, and leads to a thorough understanding of econometric techniques. David Hendry and Bent Nielsen introduce modeling for a range of situations, including binary data sets, multiple regression, and cointegrated systems. In each Author:David F.
