Philosophy Talk. Making Decisions
Abstract/Contents
- Abstract
- When we make decisions we think we're in control, making rational choices. But are we? This is the central question posed by Dan Ariely, Professor of Behavioral Economics at Duke University, in his book Predictably Irrational. Ken and John discuss irrationality, its dangers, and perhaps also its benefits, with this philosophical and fascinating economist.
