Comments from the Stata technical group
Using Stata for Principles of Econometrics, Third Edition, by Lee C. Adkins and R. Carter Hill, is a companion to the introductory econometrics textbook Principles of Econometrics, Third Edition. Adkins and Hill provide a quick introduction to using Stata’s menu system and command line before moving on to their many examples. Because the main textbook uses a learning-by-doing approach, this companion book is especially useful to emphasize more “doing”. 
Using Stata for Principles of Econometrics, Third Edition, shows how to use Stata to reproduce examples from the main textbook and how to interpret the output. The authors also provide important information needed to perform and understand econometric analyses.
