There are six factors that can enhance or weaken an econometrics text: coverage, lucidity, speed, independence, examples, and exercises. With clear explanations and a smooth pace, Fumio Hayashi's Econometrics succeeds as a solid first-year graduate text. The ample empirical applications examples reflect the author's research interest—applied econometrics—and make the work best suited for students sharing that interest.

The slogan ‘Evidence of evidence is evidence’ is obscure. It has been applied to connect evidence in one situation to evidence in another. The link may be diachronic or interpersonal. Is present evidence of past or future evidence for p present evidence for p? Is evidence for me of evidence for you for p evidence for me for p? The chapter discusses intra-perspectival evidential links. Is present evidence for me of present evidence for me for p present evidence for me for p? Unless the connection holds between a perspective and itself, it is unlikely to hold between distinct perspectives. Evidence will be understood probabilistically, using formal models from epistemic logic. Bridge principles between first-level and higher-level epistemic conditions often imply versions of controversial principles, such as positive and negative introspection. Formalizations of intra-perspectival principles that evidence of evidence is evidence have similarly implausible connections.
