As an introduction to econometrics this book is fantastic. You won't get the finer points of the statistics to be a true pro. That said, this book covers all the major bases. I used it more than many of the statistic books I had, because the manner of speaking intonates application more than theory.

If I were teaching a class, this would be a wonderful text to use and then as a compendium, also use a text that gave a deeper mathematical treatment for the students who need that sort of depth.

Comprehensive and easy to digest review of statistical analysis techniques with specific examples geared towards economics.

Great flow, explanations and it made up for all the times I dosed off in class.

A professor once told me that you either need a good professor or a good book to learn a subject. My introduction to econometrics was rocky to say the least. I thought I had some sort of learning deficiency after taking the course which did not fit with the rest of results I had in academia. I later learned what difference a good econometrics text and teacher made. In my humble opinion, Gujarati failed to go deeper and give more examples on all of the occasions that I wasn't grasping a topic.
