Fried H.O., Lovell C.A.K., Schmidt S.S. (Eds.) The Measurement of Productive Efficiency and Productivit Growth
Oxford University Press – 2008, 653 pages
ISBN: 0195183525

When Harold Fried, et al. published The Measurement of Productive Efficiency: Techniques and Applications with OUP in 1993, the book received a great deal of professional interest for its accessible treatment of the rapidly growing field of efficiency and productivity analysis. The first several chapters, providing the background, motivation, and theoretical foundations for this topic, were the most widely recognized. In this tight, direct update, these same editors have compiled over ten years of the most recent research in this changing field, and expanded on those seminal chapters. The book will guide readers from the basic models to the latest, cutting-edge extensions, and will be reinforced by references to classic and current theoretical and applied research. It is intended for professors and graduate students in a variety of fields, ranging from economics to agricultural economics, business administration, management science, and public administration. It should also appeal to public servants and policy makers engaged in business performance analysis or regulation.

Springer – 2007, 267 pages ISBN: 0387351558 The topic of production efficiency has attracted attention since Adam Smith’s pin factory and even before. However, a rigorous analytical approach to the measurement of efficiency in production originated with the work of Koopmans (1951) and Debreu (1951), empirically applied by Farrell (1957). Farrell’s seminal work gave rise to a considerable amount of studies. The basic idea of efficiency analysis i...

Springer – 2005, 183 pages ISBN: 038724963X The key unifying conceptual tool of this important entry in the study of efficiency and productivity is the directional distance function. In New Directions the authors take up this new performance measure while also maintaining their "traditional" axiomatic production theoretic approach. The directional distance function includes traditional distance functions and efficiency measures as special cases...

Cambridge University Press – 1994, 312 pages ISBN: 0521420334 This book presents a mathematical programming approach to the analysis of production frontiers and efficiency measurement. The authors construct a variety of production frontiers, and by measuring distances to them are able to develop a model of efficient producer behavior and a taxonomy of possible types of departure from efficiency in various environments. Linear programming is used...
