文档介绍：Economics Lab
The new field of experimental economics e of age, as signaled by the
2002 Nobel Prize in Economics. Laboratory experiments with human subjects
now provide crucial data in most fields of economics.
This textbook introduces the world of experimental economics. Contributors
including Reinhard Selten and Axel Leijonhufvud add to a book that sketches the
history of experimental economics before moving on to describe how to set up an
economics experiment and to survey selected applications and the latest methods.
This user-friendly book demonstrates how students can use the lessons to conduct
original research.
With their freeflowing, discursive yet precise style Friedman and Cassar have
created a book that will be essential to students of experimental economics across
the world. On account of its authoritative content, Economics Lab will also find its
way onto the bookshelves of leading researchers in all fields of economics.
