This book provides a comprehensive assessment of the latest simulation techniques, and examines the three main areas of econometric inference where the use of simulation methods has been successful; Bayesian inference, classical inference, and the solution and stochastic simulation of dynamic econometric models, in particular general equilibrium models.
