Highly rated and widely used, it serves as both a core PhD course text and a practical reference for researchers. ## Description A comprehensive and up-to-date introduction to the mathematics that all economics students need to know Probability theory is the quantitative language used to handle uncertainty and is the foundation of modern statistics. Probability and Statistics for Economists provides graduate and PhD students with an essential introduction to mathematical probability and statistical theory, which are the basis of the methods used in econometrics. This incisive textbook teaches fundamental concepts, emphasizes modern, real-world applications, and gives students an intuitive understanding of the mathematics that every economist needs to know. Covers probability and statistics with mathematical rigor while emphasizing intuitive explanations that are accessible to economics students of all backgrounds Discusses random variables, parametric and multivariate distributions, sampling, the law of large numbers, central limit theory, maximum likelihood estimation, numerical optimization, hypothesis testing, and more Features hundreds of exercises that enable students to learn by doing Includes an in-depth appendix summarizing important mathematical results as well as a wealth of real-world examples Can serve as a core textbook for a first-semester PhD course in econometrics and as a companion book to Bruce E.

One caveat: be on the lookout for counterfeit versions of the book. The quality of the paper in the hardcover copy I bought from Amazon SG (Singapore) is relatively bad. The paper is very thin and it is possible to read the text on the other side of the page. I wonder whether it is a pirate edition rather than the original Princeton University book. In the past, I bought a hardcover copy of Deep Learning (MIT Press) from Amazon US which was also a counterfeit copy rather than the US edition. ## Frequently Bought Together - Probability and Statistics for Economists - Econometrics --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.pa/products/477876048-princeton-university-press-probability-and-statistics-for-economists](https://www.desertcart.com.pa/products/477876048-princeton-university-press-probability-and-statistics-for-economists) --- *Product available on Desertcart Panama* *Store origin: PA* *Last updated: 2026-10-16*
