Bass's academic interests
I interested in economy. I think economy is involve in daily life. Economy helps people to think of their demand and how to handle its. It does not matter you are economist or not. Economy lead you to better life. I can understand people behavior by reading economic books. I always read economic books when I am free.

I am surprise with your point about you can understand people by economical writing because I never though that can help us to realize people. So next time I will find to read some of them.
ReplyDeleteand another point, I hate maths so i'm avoid this field for all my life.
Yes economic theories help us to understand others. It would be great if you have time to read its, and do not worry about math which is the most difficult part but not main idea.
DeleteI like the way economics can help us to better understand the causes and effects in social events. For example, I was surprised to learn to making abortion legal is one of the most effective ways to reduce crime, and this came from the statistical analyses of economists.
ReplyDeleteExperiments by behavioural economists like Dan Ariely, which seem close to psychology in many ways, also help us to understand how people make decisions about allocating resources and so on, which are often surprising: I was surprised at how readily most people will steal and engage in dishonest behaviour, and the studies exploring what is and is not effective in reducing such dishonest behaviour by ordinary people are fascinating.
Sometimes we read an economics essay in class.
I read book "Predictably Irrationalin" wrote by Dan Ariely and i love it. I first impressive about the background of Economist subscribing promotion.
DeleteSo, I shouldn't use one of Ariely's essay's from that book in class?
DeleteThat's OK, I'll find something else for us to read.
In level 3 and above, we sometimes read an academic journal paper by Ariely.
I like the the book about economic espically when it come with the point about stratagies. I love the concept "opportunity cost". This concept help me when i have to decide. Nevertheless I would like to ask you for more detail about economic theories help us to understand others soon. It's sound interesting.
