"The purely economic man is indeed close to being a social moron. Economic theory has been much preoccupied with this rational fool." – Richard H. Thaler
Richard H. Thaler challenges the basic premise in economics, where actors are considered to be rational creatures. Every day, people make decisions which deviate from the standards of rationality assumed by economists. Using recent discoveries in psychology, Thaler reveals how behavioral economic analysis discovers new ways of looking at everyday finance and overall business challenges.
Richard H. Thaler improves the basic definition of economics where participants are rational beings and encourages the use of psychological studies in understanding the modern consumers and the effects they have on the economy as a whole.
P.S. Misbehaving is an extremely useful book that will help you grasp the concept of modern economy and use it to improve your financial and business decisions.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5As an economics major in college (but not career) I always thought that the mathematical models were impressive but a perfect example of GIGO (Garbage In Garbage Out.) The main problem was that they were all based on Economic Man, a mythical creature like unicorns. I never met any so I assumed that a new theory was needed. Just one example: To Economic Man the pain of losing $100 is equal to the pleasure of making $100 which we all know is not true. This book tries to bring this discrepancy in to economics by showing that Economic Man Misbehaves according to Classic but not Behavioral Economics.classical
