Davidson, Russell:

Introduction I came to McGill in August 2002, having been for many years at Queen's University in Kingston Ontario. Since 1987, I have regularly divided my time between my Canadian job (fall term) and GREQAM, a research lab in Marseille, France, associated with the Université de la Méditerranée, and more particularly the Faculté des Sciences Économiques et de Gestion, at which I do my undergraduate teaching while in France. From now on, I will spend more time in Canada, but will continue my French connection. My main research interests lie in the field of econometrics. I have worked for several years now on problems related to the bootstrap, in an attempt to improve the reliability and ease of implementation of this important statistical tool. I have also worked on problems of poverty and income distribution, especially as regards statistical inference about stochastic dominance. This econometrics textbook, which I wrote with James MacKinnon, was published by Oxford University Press in 1993. Corrections and a Supplement are available as Updates to the book. James MacKinnon and I are currently at work on this book, to be published by Oxford University Press.
