Description
Book SynopsisTrade Review"This book is impressive for the clarity, depth, and informativeness of its surveys. The focus on series of experiments is very instructive. . . . One can learn a lot from the issues debated, the methodological digressions, and the many suggestions for further research. . . . This is a great book that is wholeheartedly recommended."
---F. van Winden, Journal of Economics"The book provides not only a comprehensive and deep review of major areas of experimental research, but it is also exceptionally intellectually stimulating and insightful for theoretical economists as well as those who are interested in more immediate policy issues."
---Katerina Sherstyuk, Economic Record"This is a book written principally to demonstrate the considerable scope and potential of economics experiments, and it achieves that objective very well."
---Graham Loomes, Times Higher Education Supplement"A critical review and analysis of the foundations of laboratory experiments in economics, and much more. . . . Indeed, this handbook serves as a thoughtful agenda for future researchers." * Choice *
"Several chapters, including those on neuroeconomics, political economy, and learning, have applications beyond economics to psychology and political science, a reminder of the growing role of interdisciplinarity in the social sciences. An excellent volume with extensive references." * Choice *
