Sinossi
Richard Thaler, vincitore del premio Nobel per l'economia 2017, ha dedicato l'intera carriera a studiare l'idea radicale per cui gli agenti economici sono individui prevedibili e inclini a commettere errori. Misbehaving è il resoconto affascinante e divertente della sua lotta per riportare una disciplina accademica con i piedi per terra e per cambiare il modo in cui pensiamo l'economia, noi stessi e il mondo. La teoria economica tradizionale assume che gli individui siano razionali. Fin dall'inizio della sua ricerca, Thaler ha compreso che questi automi non somigliavano affatto alle persone vere. Quando acquistiamo una radiosveglia o chiediamo un mutuo, siamo tutti vittime di distorsioni cognitive che ci allontanano dai criteri di razionalità postulati dagli economisti. In altre parole ci comportiamo in modo anomalo e, ciò che più conta, con serie conseguenze. Inizialmente sottovalutato dagli economisti come un campo divertente ma irrilevante, lo studio degli errori degli esseri umani e dei loro effetti sul mercato ora guida gli sforzi per migliorare le decisioni nelle nostre vite, nelle imprese e nelle politiche pubbliche.
