Econometric Business Cycle Research (1940)

Econometric Business Cycle Research is a seminal work written by Jan Tinbergen in 1940. The book is a pioneering study in the field of econometrics, which is the application of mathematical and statistical methods to economic data. Tinbergen's work focuses on the analysis of business cycles, which are the fluctuations in economic activity that occur over time.The book is divided into two parts. The first part provides an overview of the methods and techniques used in econometric analysis. Tinbergen explains the importance of statistical inference, the use of time series data, and the development of mathematical models to understand economic phenomena. He also discusses the limitations and challenges of econometric analysis.The second part of the book focuses on the application of econometric methods to the study of business cycles. Tinbergen presents a detailed analysis of the business cycle in the United States from 1919 to 1939, using a variety of econometric models. He examines the causes of the cycle, the role of government policy, and the potential for forecasting future cycles.Throughout the book, Tinbergen emphasizes the importance of using rigorous statistical methods to understand economic phenomena. He argues that econometric analysis can provide valuable insights into the workings of the economy, and can help policymakers make more informed decisions.Econometric Business Cycle Research is a landmark work in the history of econometrics, and has had a significant impact on the development of the field. It remains an important reference for economists, policymakers, and anyone interested in understanding the dynamics of the economy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
