Quasi-Economics

New book: Bounded Rationality and Industrial Organization (Oxford University Press, 2011)

 

 

This book synthesizes a recent theoretical literature that analyzes market models in which profit-maximizing firms interact with consumers whose behavior departs from the standard rational-choice model. The book is meant to serve as a textbook for graduate courses in microeconomic theory, as well as theory-oriented courses in industrial organization or behavioral economics.
