Reviews
From the reviews:
“Alistair Munro’s book … provides an important contribution to this emerging literature. The author has a broad scope and examines several implications of bounded rationality that are of interest for public economics. … several implications of bounded rationality that are relevant for environmental economists are addressed, mainly for non-market valuation research. … The material is accessible for researchers or graduate students who want to be introduced to the topic, while several chapters tackle more advanced issues that can be of interest for an expert audience.” (W. J. W. Botzen, Environmental and Resource Economics, Vol. 49, 2011)Bibliographic Information
