Comment from the Stata technical group

A Companion to Econometric Analysis of Panel Data will appeal to students and researchers learning about panel data with Baltagi’s Econometric Analysis of Panel Data, 4th Edition and other graduate-level econometrics texts. Companion includes derivations of results shown without proof in Baltagi’s textbook and provides more numerical examples, most of which were completed using Stata.

Working through Companion is like having a personal tutor help you work through a graduate text like Baltagi’s. The organization of material in Companion parallels that of Baltagi’s panel-data text but presents the material in a pedagogical manner consisting of some background material followed by many sample exercise questions and complete solutions. While one may at first frown at the idea of a book including solutions to exercises, this text delivers them in a way that truly motivates learning rather than mere copying: the questions are sufficiently involved that by seeing how to solve them, students develop a method to attack mathematical proofs and think like an econometrician.

Baltagi’s A Companion to Econometric Analysis of Panel Data, while focused on panel data, is more generally useful to all students of econometrics, because it teaches and instills tools that are applicable to an array of problems.
