A Course in Behavioral Economics, now in its thoroughly updated third edition, provides a comprehensive and accessible introduction to the field. It explores the psychological underpinnings of economic behavior, deviating from the traditional assumption of perfect rationality. The book examines key concepts such as cognitive biases, heuristics, framing effects, prospect theory, and intertemporal choice, illustrating how these factors influence decision-making in various contexts, including consumer behavior, finance, and public policy. This edition likely incorporates recent research and real-world examples to demonstrate the practical applications of behavioral economics and its implications for understanding and shaping human behavior. Students will gain a strong foundation in the core principles of behavioral economics and learn how to apply these insights to real-world problems.
