The Logic Of Life: Uncovering the New Economics of Everything by Harford, Tim

Description: A dazzling application of new economic theories to the world around us - by the author of THE UNDERCOVER ECONOMIST. THE LOGIC OF LIFE shows how the new economics of rational choice theory explains much, much more. Drug addicts and teenage muggers can be rational. Suburban sprawl and inner city decay are rational. Endless meetings at the office and the injustices of working life? Rational. Economics explains why your boss is overpaid, whether we should build more prisons, and whether a city like New Orleans can recover from disaster. THE UNDERCOVER ECONOMIST was a bestseller in paperback for over a year. Tim Harford writes the 'Dear Economist' column for the FT Saturday magazine. An award winning public speaker, Tim has been an economist for a major oil company and an economics tutor at Oxford University.
