Rezensionen

Selected by Choice magazine as an Outstanding Academic Title for 2019

"This book is a must read for anyone interested in behavioral economics. ... Behavioral economics is then an approach to economic analysis that enriches the explanation of decision-making by applying psychological insights. The bibliographies at the end of each chapter are thoughtful, and the authors provide insightful 'hints' to future work that needs to be done." (M. H. Lesser, Choice, Vol. 56 (6), February, 2019)
