Behavioural Economics: Daniel Kahneman in town!

Geoff Riley

Daniel Kahneman’s new book Thinking Fast and Slow is no available in bookstores and he is coming to the LSE in London on Tuesday to hold a discussion with Professor Richard Layard. I am taking a group of students to the event and the sense of expectation is palpable, the Nobel prize winner in Economics has a world renown and we will send through a detailed blog on the event early next week.

Here are some fresh teaching resources on his work
