| Description |
| Should you buy a Pontiac while you can? Is it better to rent your house or to sell it? How should the government manage regulation, tax policy, and health care? These might sound like typical economic choices for our times, but New York Times columnist and Cornell Professor Robert H. Frank says almost every choice we make is economic, limited by resources and loaded with tradeoffs. Frank, a leading proponent of the emerging field of behavioral economics and author of The Economic Naturalists Guide to Washington: Common Sense Principles for Troubled Times, explains how the decisions we make, down to food, gasoline, and even how we choose to love, affect our pocketbooks, our policies and our personal happiness. Presented by the Town Hall Center for Civic Life, with Elliott Bay Book Company. |
