An
attempt has been made in this work to provide a selective
set of contributions on economic thinking in their
applied aspects. Of the 16 papers in this work, two
papers are on the research methodology and economic
surveys, five articles are on estimation by linear
regression models and other econometric functions
and tests. The other important aspects covered are
Bayesian regression analysis with an Edgeworth series
prior distribution, Technological innovation and the
schumpeterian Hypotheses, Latent structure analysis.
An illustrative application with development indicators.
There are two case studies one relating to disaggregated
disequilibrium goods market model for the U.S.A. and
the economic implications of the Sri Lanka's debt
problem.
Prof. Jan Tinbergen, the first Nobel Laureate in Economics
has said in his 'Foreword' that, "This book consists
of an impressive set of original contributions of
economic thinking in applied version."
