An Introduction to Behavioral Economics: A Guide for Students (9780230532595): Nick Wilkinson: Books. 'This is a wonderful book that manages to be very timely and up-to-date, balanced, readable, and teachable.

Camerer, California Institute of Technology, USA 'This book provides a superb introduction to the field of behavioral economics, suitable not only as an introductory text, but also as an entry-point for those desiring an engaging overview of the field. By providing his own unique and interesting perspective on the material he reviews, Wilkinson succeeds at the difficult task of holding the reader's interest while providing remarkably comprehensive coverage. This book will help readers to share in the excitement of those currently working in the field.' - Professor George Loewenstein, Carnegie Mellon University, USA'Nick Wilkinson has done a commendable job covering a large body of theoretical, experimental and empirical research. Any student would benefit from this up-to-date introduction to this blooming field. Even specialists in the area would gain much from this textbook, which offers an impressively complete synthesis of thirty years' worth of research at the intersection of psychology and economics.' - Professor Simon Gaechter, University of Nottingham, UK'An increasing number of economists believe that the future direction of economics is inextricably linked with insights derived from psychology and sociology. This book provides a clear and comprehensive introduction to this endeavour that serves to illuminate, educate and open one's mind to the possibilities. It successfully conveys both the insights and the sense of excitement generated from this growing body of research, and deserves a prominent place on the shelves of all economists and other social scientists.' - Dr Sanjit Dhami, University of Leicester, UK
