One of my favourite textbooks.
It not only explains everything in details but also gives a guidance on usage of software package - Eviews. Can be used as a complete self-study guidance.
Read the chapters needed for my quantitative methods class, but expecting to come back to that book soon when I have another econometrics related module.
