Reviews

'This is an important book. It provides an excellent, comprehensive introduction to a rapidly expanding field of econometric methods ...'. Economica 'The analysis of transition/duration data is the next frontier beyond the now well-charted area of qualitative choice and limited-dependent variables. Lancaster's book is an excellent travel guide to this relatively unknown but beautiful land where time-series analysis and qualitative choice merge. Even if they do not decide to stay, economists and social scientists will return enriched from a trip under Professor Lancaster's guidance.' Geert Ridder, University of Groningen
