Even more to look forward to:
Next year, Andrew Gelman and Jennifer Hill are “removing all references to statistical significance” (!) from their upcoming edition of Data Analysis using Regression and Multilevel/Hierarchical.
Samuel Bowles, Duncan Foley, and Simon Halliday are working on a microecon text aimed at intermediate undergraduates. Like Bowles’s graduate text, it covers behavioral and evolutionary topics you don’t usually see in most texts.
Good recs, thanks!
Do you have a link for the “removing all refs to stat sig” claim about 2nd edition of Gelman & Hill?
