In “Misbehaving: The Making of Behavioral Economics,” renowned economist Richard H. Thaler provides a captivating exploration of the evolution of economic thought and the emergence of behavioral economics as a groundbreaking discipline. Thaler challenges the traditional assumptions of classical economics that portray individuals as rational actors consistently making optimal decisions. Instead, he introduces the concept of “bounded rationality” and argues that human decision-making is inherently flawed, influenced by cognitive biases and social factors. Thaler’s narrative weaves together historical anecdotes, experiments, and personal experiences, offering a compelling account of the development of behavioral economics.
