A must have
Greene's text is currently the quintessential econometrics "how-to" manual on the market. Most 1st year PhD students will at some point have to work their way through Greene. He feature a wide range of techniques and methods. But as with most econometrics texts, there doesn't seem to be any overarching organization. Just several chapters featuring several different aspects of econometrics. The book by itself can be a little daunting, but is accessible to most students. Reading it in conjunction with Kennedy's Econometric text will provide an excellent introduction to the material
