      Behavioral economics tempers the cost-benefit logic of economics with behavioral findings from psychology. This compilation showcases 23 journal articles published during the past seven years, demonstrating how economic logic can illuminate and inform decisions and dilemmas we face in everyday life. Articles are grouped in sections on historical origins of behavioral economics, research methods, rational choice in childhood, present-future choice, saving and investing money, effort and pay, seeking happiness, social norms and culture, and preferences. Subjects examined include Tom Sawyer and the construction of value, the validity of subjective survey data, and a behavioral-economics view of poverty. Maital is academic director of TIM-Tel Aviv, and a senior research at the S. Neaman Institute for Advanced Studies in Science and Technology, Israel. Annotation ©2007 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR ()
