Abstract
The book has evolved from the author’s lecture notes for a mathematical statistics course. Its goals are to cover the basics of statistical inference in support of a subsequent econometrics course and to explain the ’why’ to motivate the students who had previously taken an introductory statistics or econometrics course of a cookbook flavour. Such a textbook is needed, as several popular econometrics textbooks put fundamentals of mathematical statistics in an appendix; see e.g. Greene (2012) and Wooldridge (2016).
