New developments in experimental economics / edited by Enrica Carbone and Chris Starmer.

Includes bibliographical references and index.

The use of experimental approaches in economics is growing at a remarkable rate and the technique is increasingly recognised as an important research tool with wide-ranging applications. Set against the rapid pace and wide scope of experimental research, this two-volume work provides a valuable overview of advances in key research areas over the last decade. The coverage ranges from new work in traditional areas of application (choice, markets and games) to innovative applications of experiments at the interface of economics and neuroscience. The editors, both internationally renowned for their research in experimental economics, have drawn together a fascinating collection which provides broad insight into a field which is reshaping conventional understandings of what economics is, and how economies work. The collection will provide a valuable reference of interest to new students of experimental economics and to postgraduates and professional economists seeking to broaden and deepen their knowledge of new developments.
