Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. A revelatory alternative to the standard economic models of human behavior that proposes an exciting new way to understand decision?making  ?Willful is a breakthrough in economics. Richard Robb?s tremendously insightful book shows how much of our behavior is not explained by existing theories of human action and explains in sparkling prose why understanding decisions made seemingly without reason presents a fuller picture of our world.??Edmund S. Phelps, Nobel Laureate in Economics Why do we do the things we do?

Robb explains how these choices made seemingly without reason belong to a realm of behavior he identifies as ?for?itself.?   A provocative combination of philosophy and economics that offers a key to many of our quixotic choices, this groundbreaking volume provides a new way to understand everything from investing to how hard we work to how we manage daily interactions.…
