Considers the history of econometrics, a field of economics that combines statistics, mathematics, and economic theory
Marcel Boumans sa zameriava na empirické výskumné postupy z historických a filozofických perspektív. Skúma najmä praktiky merania, modelovania a úlohu matematiky v spoločenských vedách. Jeho práca sa zaoberá aj vizualizáciou a epistemologickým pochopením expertných súdov. Ide o hlboké zamyslenie sa nad podstatou vedeckého poznania mimo laboratórneho prostredia.

Considers the history of econometrics, a field of economics that combines statistics, mathematics, and economic theory
Economic Methodology explores the status and character of economics as a social science and introduces students to philosophical issues underlying modern science. Approaching the subject as philosophy of science for economists, the authors use the historical developments in philosophy of science to frame this introduction to the field of economic methodology. By doing this they strengthen students' understanding of economics as a science to enhance their reasoning skills, introducing them to the wider philosophical issues surrounding our understanding of the area.
