This important collection examines the subject of cognitive economics - an interdisciplinary approach to the study of human problem solving, choice, decision-making and change which explains economic transactions and the nature and evolution of organizations and institutions in an environment of structural uncertainty, scarcity and incentives. Cognitive economics is strongly linked with many other disciplines concerning choice, such as cognitive psychology, artificial intelligence, philosophy, and the science of administration. This new approach is contributing to a wide range of economic fields such as consumer theory, economics of the firm, economics of innovation and evolutionary economics. These path-breaking volumes will be an indispensable tool for new research in the field of cognitive economics, and of particular interest to scholars of economics, psychology and philosophy. - from Amzon
