Your Money And Your Brain How the New Science of Neuroeconomics Can Help Make You Rich


Why do Otherwise Smart, Rational People Make Irrational, Foolish Decisions about Money? Combining psychology, neuroscience, and economics, the new science of neuroeconomics answers that question. In Your Money and Your Brain, financial journalist Jason Zweig explains how neuroeconomics can show investors how to avoid these money mistakes.

As entertaining as it is enlightening, Your Money and Your Brain explains why we often misunderstand risk and tend to be overconfident about our investment decisions. Zweig blends anecdotes from experiments in which he participated with stories about investing mistakes-some from highly successful people-distilling them to offer practical steps that investors can take to make better decisions and take control of the battlefield between reason and emotion.
