en Limba Engleză Hardback – 25 mar 2027
Behavioural Economics and Experiments explores vital questions around decision making and human nature. Assuming no prior knowledge of economics, this accessible book features wide ranging examples from literature, film, sport, neuroscience and beyond.
Ananish Chaudhuri expertly tackles the complex relationships between human behaviour, society and decision making, introducing readers to the latest work on heuristics, framing and anchoring, as well as ideas around fairness, trust and social norms.
The book offers a fresh perspective on issues such as:
• Decision making under uncertainty
• Strategic Thinking
• Firms’ pricing decisions
• Employment contracts
• Coordination failures in organizations
• Preventing bubbles in financial markets
• How behavioural insights are providing a novel perspective on economic development
The second edition includes new chapters on auctions, contests and discussion of AI and algorithmic decision making. Additional features include highlighted key definitions, end-of-chapter discussion questions, an extensive test bank and suite of webcasts related to each chapter to support learning and teaching, especially for those wishing to implement a flipped-classroom approach.
The book is an ideal introduction for students of behavioural economics, experimental economics, public policy, psychology and other business-related programmes. The lucid writing style makes the book accessible to policymakers and curious laymen.

Recenzii

“This is an extremely absorbing book covering key topics in behavioural and experimental economics, with applications and anecdotes that go far beyond economics. It is an indispensable source of inspiration for the researcher and a treasure trove of examples for the teacher.”
Martin Kocher, University of Vienna, Austria
“Filled with real-world examples ranging from sports to politics, this book takes the reader on a wonderful journey examining human behavior. Chaudhuri is a gifted writer, and the book will be treasured by both experts as well as those who want to learn more about behavioural economics.”
Iris Bohnet, Albert Pratt Professor of Business and Government, Harvard Kennedy School, USA
“I strongly recommend this clear, lively and engaging book to all readers, including those without any training in economics, who want to understand how real people decide how much to trust others in everyday life.”
Paul Seabright, Director, Institute of Advanced Study, Toulouse, France
“Chaudhuri has written an extremely readable introduction to experimental economics. This is perfect for advanced undergrads or graduate students who want to learn about state-of-the-art research without being smothered by technical details.”
David J. Cooper, University of Iowa, USA
“This book is a perfect introduction to behavioral and experimental economics and fills a much-needed niche for the classroom. Ananish Chaudhuri is a gifted author whose conversational writing style is easily accessible for undergraduates, yet detailed enough to use as an introduction for graduate students.” 
James Murphy, University of Alaska, Anchorage, USA
“Chaudhuri’s book teaches us how human psychology impacts the decisions that we make. His book reflects his teaching style: He uses straight-forward, real-world stories to clearly explain behavioral economics theories. This book is easy to read and a great way to learn these important concepts.”
Belinda Juran, Retired Partner, WilmerHale, Boston, USA
“As you read through Behavioural Economics and Experiments one thing becomes crystal clear: Ananish Chaudhuri is a consummate storyteller. The Merchant of Venice, Princess Bride and Scarface, all show up in the book, as do Buddy Holly, Don Mclean and Leonard Cohen! Browse through the bibliography section of the book and you will get a sense of the size of the canvas and the nature of the work that you hold in your hands.” 
Sudipta Sarangi, Virginia Tech, USA
“The topics are presented in a folksy style in a first-person narrative. In parts, a reader might feel the Professor in Chaudhuri standing out there, introducing the topics and ideas bit by bit in an interactive lecture, that promises to hold the attention of undergraduates – not just the Seniors but the new and uninitiated ones as well.”
Utteeyo Dasgupta, Fordham University, USA
“In his well-written and engaging book, Ananish Chaudhuri introduces the reader to much of what we know about how behavioural economic ideas affect individual decision-making, business decisions, and market dynamics. While the topic can get complex, the book is intended to allow those without a substantial background in economics to understand the material, via a plethora of examples presented and the lucid writing.”
Mark Pingle, University of Nevada, Reno, USA
