Description
Book SynopsisThe first book to discuss the principles of the nonparametric approach to the topics covered in a first year graduate course in econometrics. The book will provide a new perspective on teaching and research in applied subjects in general and econometrics and statistics in particular.
Trade Review'The authors of this well-produced volume merit high praise for their endeavours. This will be the most comprehensive summary of nonparametric statistics that we are likely to see for a long time. I can recommend it as a guide to recent work in an important area of mathematical statistics.' Short Book Reviews
