5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent "user's manual" for applied development economists 23 July 2009
By E. Kandpal - Published on Amazon.com
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
This book is my go-to reference for all things practical. I am particularly a fan of the code appendix, which makes replicating (and therefore understanding) Deaton's results very easy. Through its exhaustive content (both theoretical and empirical), this book helps the reader get a full grasp of the many issues involved in using household surveys from the developing world. I recommend starting with the first chapter and working your way to the end. The section on survey design is very helpful to anyone interested in fieldwork. A must-buy for all applied economists, particularly those in development.

5.0 out of 5 stars A masterpiece 31 Mar. 2004
By Amazon Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format: Paperback
This book is a masterpiece. In practice, it deserves to become the "Holy Bible" of Microeconometrics applied to (but not only to) Development Economics. It is beautifully written by an amazingly knowledgeble economist, who has actually worked for years (and still does) on most of the issues this book deals with. It is no easy reading, and it would be worth spending a day for every single page, but it's excellent even if you don't want to go through the details, and you just need an intuition about the issues covered. The first chapter introduces the reader to many important aspects of the contruction and use of household surveys. The second chapter masterfully reviews many concepts of applied econometrics. Chapter 3 is about poverty and inequality measurement. Chapter 4 is about "Nutrition, children, and intrahousehold allocation", Chapter 5 deals with prices and tax reforms, and Chapter 6 with saving and consumption smoothing. The book also contains many useful Stata codes the author wrote and used for his many papers. Again, this is not a trivial reading, but if you are interested in applied economics you will find reading this book extremely rewarding, and often almost entertaining, because Deaton is one of the very few economists around able to write about technical stuff in a brilliant and intuitive way.

5.0 out of 5 stars Deaton is the man ! 21 Mar. 2000
By Andres Peri - Published on Amazon.com
Format: Paperback
This is an excelent manual for anyone interested in studying consumption or welfare in developing countries. Profesor Deaton is certainly one of the experts in the field. His book is well written and flows easily from theory to practice. Really enjoy it !
