Following the great success of the first "Palgrave Handbook of Econometrics", this highly anticipated second volume focuses on applied econometrics.It is sequel to the extremely popular "Palgrave Handbook of Econometrics: Volume I - Econometric Theory". It provides a comprehensive overview of all areas of applied econometrics. It brings together the finest academics working in applied econometrics.Following the seminal "Palgrave Handbook of Econometrics: Volume I", this second volume brings together the finest academics working in econometrics today and explores applied econometrics, containing contributions on subjects including growth/development econometrics and applied econometrics and computing.
