Re: st: Elementary texts

[Scott Cunningham <scunning@gmail.com>]

Is Christopher Baum's book appropriate for that class?  What is the  
ideal course for Baum's book, anyway?  I'm teaching masters level  
econometrics in the spring 2008 for the first time and have yet to  
pick a text, and was wondering whether that one might suit.
