The classical view of economics is that we are rational individuals, making decisions with the intention of maximizing our preferences. Behaviorists, on the other hand, see us as relying on mental shortcuts and conforming to preexisting biases. Richard Robb argues that neither explanation accounts for those things that we do for their own sake, and without understanding these sorts of actions, our picture of decision?'making is at best incomplete. Robb explains how these choices made seemingly without reason belong to a realm of behavior he identifies as "for?'itself."   A provocative combination of philosophy and economics that offers a key to many of our quixotic choices, this groundbreaking volume provides a new way to understand everything from investing to how hard we work to how we manage daily interactions. 606 $aDecision making 606 $aDecision making$xPhilosophy 606 $aChoice (Psychology) 615 0$aDecision making. 615 0$aDecision making$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aChoice (Psychology). 676 $a330 700 $aRobb$b Richard$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01582915 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910793972603321 996 $aWillful$93865671 997 $aUNINA
