Topics In Advanced Econometrics : Springer : 9780387941561 : 0387941568 : 07 Jan 1994 : This book is intended for second year graduate students and professionals who have an interest in linear and nonlinear simultaneous equations mod­ els. It basically traces the evolution of econometrics beyond the general linear model (GLM), beginning with the general linear structural econo­ metric model (GLSEM) and ending with the generalized method of mo­ ments (GMM). Thus, it covers the identification problem (Chapter 3), maximum likelihood (ML) methods (Chapters 3 and 4), two and three stage least squares (2SLS, 3SLS) (Chapters 1 and 2), the general nonlinear model (GNLM) (Chapter 5), the general nonlinear simultaneous equations model (GNLSEM), the special ca'3e of GNLSEM with additive errors, non­ linear two and three stage least squares (NL2SLS, NL3SLS), the GMM for GNLSEIVl, and finally ends with a brief overview of causality and re­ lated issues, (Chapter 6). There is no discussion either of
