A propos du livre

Revue de presse

One of the best R guides on the market! Although written for beginners, advanced users also will learn a lot. --Ostap Okhrin, Chair of Statistics and Econometrics, Dresden University of Technology, Germany

This excellent book provides an accessible introduction to the use of R for empirical research in finance and economics. It includes an introduction to the basics of programming and data handling in R, and graphical and basic statistical analyses, before proceeding to a discussion of more complex modelling in finance and economics. The book should be invaluable to students, researchers, and practitioners who want to use R as a research tool in a number of disciplines, especially in economics and finance. --Michael McAleer, University Distinguished Chair Professor, National Tsing Hua University, Taiwan
