Experimental Economics, Environmental Methods
Author(s) - Todd L Cherry, Jason Shogren, Stephan KrollThis book brings together a number of the world's top researchers and their latest work exploring the behavioural underpinnings of environmental economics using experimental economic methods. Over the last decade experimental methods have been extensively applied to environmental economics and policy. By choosing what phenomena to explore, institution to evaluate, theory to test, response to measure, a researcher constructs the environment and rules of the game that affect the actual behavior of economic agents.
The book includes contributions from leading experimental and environmental economists including Tim Haab, Timothy Cason, Vernon Smith and Ian Bateman.
Comments:
- Tim Haab is the first guy listed among "leading experimental and environmental economists"?
- This book came out of a big workshop organized by Todd Cherry at AppState in little ol' Boone, NC. Up at the Broyhill.
- I have a review chapter in there titled "Confessions of a contingent valuation economist." It was way-fun to write. I get to explore my darker side.
- Shouldn't the title be: Environmental Economics, Experimental Methods?
Update: Todd says that, indeed, the title is as stated in #4, not the goof on the Routledge website.
