"This book provides a comprehensive, coherent, and intuitive review of panel data methodologies that are useful for empirical analysis. Sub stantially revised from the second edition, it includes two new chapter s on modeling cross-sectionally dependent data and dynamic systems of e quations. Some of the more complicated concepts have been further strea mlined. Other new material includes correlated random coefficient model s, pseudo-panels, duration and count data models, quantile analysis, an d alternative approaches for controlling the impact of unobserved heter ogeneity in nonlinear panel data models"-- Provided by publisher.
