JOP - DOES NOT LIE IN BED ALL DAY This e-book, "Jop - Does not Lie in Bed all Day", is the second e-book written by Chris Opperman. Jop is a lone adventurer who decided to tour the South African country in search of action and adventure. With his faithful old Toyota car, he embarks on a long journey and visits various interesting places along the way. Of course, things don't always go smoothly, and at times he has to use his fists or make a strategic retreat to avoid unnecessary trouble. And naturally, he has an eye for beautiful women and they can't resist him at all. But Jop doesn't complain about that. Feel free to read the collection of short stories about JOP and his escapades as he explores the country. Some of the events are based on true stories and experiences by the author himself. This e-book is therefore a delightful read, best enjoyed with a steaming cup of coffee and some rusks.

This textbook introduces students progressively to various aspects of qualitative models and assumes a knowledge of basic principles of statistics and econometrics. Inferring qualitative characteristics of data on socioeconomic class, education, employment status, and the like - given their discrete nature - requires an entirely different set of tools from those applied to purely quantitative data. Written in accessible language and offering cogent examples, students are given valuable means to gauge real-world economic phenomena. After the introduction, early chapters present models with endogenous qualitative variables, examining dichotomous models, model specification, estimation methods, descriptive usage, and qualitative panel data. Professor Gourieroux also looks at Tobit models, in which the exogenous variable is sometimes qualitative and sometimes quantitative, and changing-regime models, in which the dependent variable is qualitative but expressed in quantitative terms. The final two chapters describe models which explain variables assumed by discrete or continuous positive variables.
This research monograph, first published in 1978 by Academic Press, remains the authoritative and comprehensive treatment of the mathematical foundations of stochastic optimal control of discrete-time systems, including the treatment of the intricate measure-theoretic issues. It is an excellent supplement to the first author's Dynamic Programming and Optimal Control (Athena Scientific, 2018). Review of the 1978 printing:"Bertsekas and Shreve have written a fine book. The exposition is extremely clear and a helpful introductory chapter provides orientation and a guide to the rather intimidating mass of literature on the subject. Apart from anything else, the book serves as an excellent introd...
