In this groundbreaking 1st edition, authors David Leiser and Yhonatan Shemesh delve deep into the human psyche to explore the psychology behind our biases, distortions, and misconceptions when it comes to economics. They challenge the traditional approach of judgment and decision-making studies and go beyond the heuristics and biases of behavioral economics to uncover the true reasons behind our difficulties in understanding economic phenomena. Through engaging prose and thought-provoking insights, Leiser and Shemesh shed light on the cognitive shortcuts and metaphors we use to make sense of complex economic information.
