    Book description

    Psychologists have been observing and interpreting economic behaviour for at least fifty years, and the last decade, in particular, has seen an escalated interest in the interface between psychology and economics. The Cambridge Handbook of Psychology and Economic Behaviour is a valuable reference resource dedicated to improving our understanding of the economic mind and economic behaviour. Employing empirical methods – including laboratory experiments, field experiments, observations, questionnaires and interviews – the Handbook covers aspects of theory and method, financial and consumer behaviour, the environment and biological perspectives. With contributions from distinguished scholars from a variety of countries and backgrounds, the Handbook is an important step forward in the improvement of communications between the disciplines of psychology and economics. It will appeal to academic researchers and graduates in economic psychology and behavioural economics.

    Reviews

    Review of the hardback:'The Cambridge Handbook of Psychology and Economic Behaviour is an important step towards breaking down the last barriers between economics and psychology. Lewis has compiled an interesting and easy to read overview of the field. … I can recommend it to anyone who is interested in the science of economic behavior.'
