This book presents familiar elements of estimation theory from an analog perspective. It discusses recent developments in the theory of analog estimation and presents new results that offer flexibility in empirical research. The theory of analog estimation is far from complete. Analog Estimation Methods in Econometrics seeks to raise questions and to stimulate further research.

The first part of the book introduces basic concepts. The second part examines the very large class estimation problems that can be stated in terms of moment restrictions on a population distribution. These include classical moment problems, various prediction problems, and problems defined by moment restrictions on unobserved variables. The third part covers estimation problems defined by general restrictions on a population distribution.

The book is available in both PostScript (compressed) and PDF. If you wish to download the entire book, we have provided zipped archives of the compressed PostScript and PDF versions. The zip files are large and will take longer to download.

Printing these files from Acrobat 4.x to a local postscript or networked postscript printer should be per the usual speed of your printer. However, we advise that users on a shared network do not attempt to print these images from Reader 3.x or earlier versions to a networked postscript printer. The postscript files from which the PDF files were created are very large, and it may take 3-5 mintues to print just one page to a networked printer. We suggest that you upgrade your version to Reader 4.x, or alternatively, that you download and print off the net in the evening or weekends instead.
