Microeconomics using STATA is more than expected. It gives you clear explanation on how to implement in STATA the most recent econometric tools. Codes commented in the book are available on the internet site authors provide. They work smoothly even though are for STATA ver. 10. I also used it with STATA ver. 9 with small changes. The book requires good knowledge about statistics, inference, and econometric. The best is to have an advanced book such as: Cameron , A. Colin and Pravin K. Trivedi. Microeconometrics: Methods and Applications, 1st edition, Cambridge, 2005; or Greene, William H. Econometric Analysis. 6th Edition, Prentice Hall. 2008; or MacKinnon, James G. and Russell Davidson. Econometric Theory and Methods, 1st edition, Oxford University Press, 2003; or any other book of advanced econometrics.

The book is worth purchasing if you do not have STATA documentation set. However, it adds little to the already existing STATA manuals. I thought this book would accompany Cameron & Trivedi (excellent) book "Microeconometrics - Methods and Applications" but that's not the case.

If you are a student or researcher in the area of Microeconometrics and use Stata then this book is a must in your personal library as a ready reference.

It covers all the necessary stuff. The first two chapters gives a review of how to use Stata effectively and efficiently. Then it goes on to discuss how to do OLS, GLS, Quantile Regression, Panel Models, Non-linear Models, Bootstrapping, Limited Dependent Variable Models (Logit, Probit) and Tobit. If you are thinking of buying this book then definitely you have got the reference from your colleague or friend or instructor. I can only add that the book is completely worth the price.

The quality of the book is wonderful and the delivery is very fast and reliable. Thanks.

I am still waiting for a novel I ordered and paid for in September "The Great story" This novel has not yet been delivered to me neither has the cost been credited back to me
