Essays in Econometrics 2 Volume Paperback Set

"The book is highly recommended as a reference for researchers on many important topics such as forecasting, non-linearity, causality, co-integration and long-memory. And it can also serve as a resource for applications of time series modeling to econometrics for practitioners." Mathematical Reviews
