An Introduction to the Advanced Theory and Practice of Nonparametric Econometrics

‘This book will be valuable to economists wishing to learn nonparametric methods, and to practitioners needing the details of implementation. Applied economists will find this an excellent and practical reference guide.’ Bruce E. Hansen, University of Wisconsin, Madison‘This book manages to be comprehensive, careful, and accessible all at once - an impressive achievement for such a challenging subject. It covers topics not found elsewhere and incorporates them in a systematic, unified approach. Illustrations using the R programming language will have broad appeal for both teachers and users of nonparametric methods.’ Jeffrey M. Woolridge, Michigan State University
