New Perspectives in Econometric Theory

The Selected Works of Halbert White, Volume Two

9781843765868 Edward Elgar Publishing
The late Halbert White, formerly Professor of Economics, University of California, San Diego, US
Publication Date: 2004 ISBN: 978 1 84376 586 8 Extent: 528 pp
New Perspectives in Econometric Theory comprises specially selected papers by Halbert White which reflect his research in a variety of related areas in econometrics: heteroskedasticity of unknown form; nonlinear and nonparametric regression; instrumental variables and generalized method of moments estimation; and measurability and limit theory. In many instances, results from one paper provide the foundation for, or suggest new directions for, research taken up by others in the collection. The intent of collecting these papers together in the present volume, with new commentaries by the author, is to provide access both to a modern unified perspective for econometric theory and to a set of concepts and tools that will be useful to practitioners in the field.

As a companion to the first volume entitled Advances in Econometric Theory, this latest selection of Halbert White’s work will appeal to academics and researchers in econometrics and economic theory.
Critical Acclaim
‘The book presents an excellent overview of the research areas Halbert White has covered during this time [1980–1998], and it corresponds to the intention of the editors by collecting these papers to provide access to a modern unified perspective for econometric theory as well as to a set of concepts and tools that will be useful to practitioners.’
