The History of Econometric Ideas - Paperback

by Mary Morgan (Author), Morgan Mary S. (Author), Craufurd Goodwin (Editor)

The History of Econometric Ideas covers the period from the late nineteenth century to the middle of the twentieth century, illustrating how economists first learned to harness statistical methods to measure and test the "laws" of economics. Though scholarly, Dr. Morgan's book is very accessible; it does not require a high level of prior statistical knowledge, and will be of interest to practicing statisticians and economists.
