Misbehaving
Archival Summary & Scope
Shortlisted for the Financial Times & McKinsey Business Book of the Year Award, Richard H. Thaler's *Misbehaving* transforms our understanding of economics by centering on real, error-prone humans rather than rational automatons. Thaler, a pioneer in behavioral economics, presents an arresting and often humorous account of how human biases—our "misbehavior"—profoundly affect decisions across personal finance, business (like Uber), government policy, and even the NFL draft. This insightful book blends psychology with economics, offering essential lessons for individuals, managers, and policymakers to navigate a complex world and make smarter choices.Archival Categorization Notes
