Description

Product Description This book provides a practitioner's foundation for the process of explanatory model building, breaking down that process into five stages. Donald W. Katzner presents a concrete example with unquantified variable values to show how the five-stage procedure works. He describes what is involved in explanatory model building for those interested in this practice, while simultaneously providing a guide for those actually engaged in it. The combination of Katzner's focus on modeling and on mathematics, along with his focus on the explanatory performance of modeling, promises to become an important contribution to the field. Review 'Professor Katzner has written a brilliant book: engaging, rigorous, and thought-provoking. It should sit on the desk of every economist and Ph.D. student in economics who wishes to tackle issues of contemporary relevance with the rigor and clarity that ought to characterize economics as a social science.' Roberto Veneziani, Queen Mary University of London'Katzner has written an original and important contribution to the literature on the methodology of economic modeling from a perspective that is seldom represented.' D. Wade Hands, University of Puget Sound, Washington Book Description This book provides a practitioner's foundation for the process of explanatory model building that deconstructs the process into five stages. About the Author Donald W. Katzner is Professor of Economics and former Department Chair at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst. His published research has spanned several areas, including: microeconomic and general equilibrium theory; the methodology of building models and of analyzing phenomena when measures of appropriate variables are neither available nor reasonably constructible; the analysis of uncertain economic phenomena when it is inappropriate to employ notions of probability; the impact of culture on economic behavior; and organizational issues within the economic firm.
