TAXI TALES ON A CROOKED BRIDGE

AUTHOR : Charlene Rajendran

PUBLISHER : Horizon

DESCRIPTION : Charlene Rajendran is one of many Malaysians living in Singapore, and she chooses not to own a car. This book chronicles her conversations with some of the 'driving philosophers' she has met on the hundreds of taxi rides she has taken. Ethnicity, gender, nationhood, religion and more are discoursed in short trips across the island state. Seemingly transient and anonymous, but never lonely, the space of a taxi might be the ideal place for both passenger and driver to ponder the world that is literally passing by. Taxi Tales On A Crooked Bridge is a quirky, lively and often surprising book that also incorporates many photographs. There's no telling what bridges can be built along the way – whether the journey is crooked or straight.

INTRODUCTORY ECONOMETRICS : A MODERN APPROACH

AUTHOR : Jeffrey M. Wooldridge

PUBLISHER : South-Western Pub

DESCRIPTION : Introductory Econometrics : A Modern Approach, illustrates how empirical researchers think about and apply econometric methods in real-world practice. The text's unique approach reflects the fact that undergraduate econometrics has moved beyond just a set of abstract tools to being genuinely useful for answering questions in business, policy evaluation, and forecasting environments. The systematic approach, which reduces clutter by introducing assumptions only as they are needed, makes absorbing the material easier and leads to better econometric practices. Its unique organization separates topics by the kinds of data being analyzed, leading to an appreciation for the important issues that arise in drawing conclusions from the different kinds of data economists use. Packed with relevant applications, Introductory Econometrics offers a wealth of interesting data sets that can be used to reproduce the examples in the text or as the starting point for original research projects.
