In recent years, attention to behavioral economics has been increasing. This book explains the essence of behavioral economics in an easy-to-understand manner with illustrations.
Traditional economics has viewed humans as emotionless creatures that pursue only gain. However, in reality, human beings are emotionally influenced and may behave irrationally. In behavioral economics, studies are being conducted to elucidate the principles behind these behaviors.
