这本书使用心理学学习理论提供的视角和分析框架来开发动态经济模型。这个框架被用来解决处于所有现代经济理论核心的最优化理论与日常证据之间的明显矛盾，这些证据表明，短期经济行为不能合理地完全描述为有效实施的自利的结果。作者将这一观点应用于一些问题领域，在这些领域中，最大化理论的文字应用通常并不令人满意。这些问题包括不确定性和赌博行为下的决策分析、面向消费者的广告在影响行为中的作用、市场中价格分散的持续性，以及通货膨胀。
This book develops dynamic economic models using the perspective and analytic framework provided by psychological learning theory. This framework is used to resolve apparent contradictions between optimization theory, which lies at the heart of all modern economic theory, and day-to-day evidence that short-run economic behaviour cannot reasonably be described solely as the outcome of efficiently implemented self-interest. The author applies this viewpoint to a number of problem areas in which literal applications of maximization theory have not usually proved to be satisfactory. These include analyses of decision-making under uncertainty and gambling behaviour, the role of consumer-oriented advertising in influencing behaviour, the persistence of price dispersions in markets, and inflation.
