A Theory of Dynamic Preferences

Using Economics and Behavioral Sciences to Explore Bias, Irrationality, and Choice

How can a particular way of argumenting direct our thinking? How does the formulation of a question influence the answer, producing a bias or an insight? And finally, what effect does public communication have on public behaviour?Psychorhetoric and the Psychology of Thought illustrates the role played by rhetoric and communicative heuristics in the psychology of thinking and decision making, and its effect on many areas of our daily life. It gives voice to a new and unconventional approach to the contemporary debate within the psychology of thought that has wide implications for key behavioural phenomena, including biases, creativity, decision making, and public policy. This innovative work challenges conventional wisdom by proposing that cognitive biases are not inherent flaws in human cognition, but rather outcomes of misleading communication patterns that influence our thinking processes.This unconventional approach to the psychology of thought has significant implications for creativity, decision making, economic behaviour, and public policy development. Essential reading for students and researchers in cognitive psychology, communication studies, and behavioural economics, this volume promises to reshape our understanding of human rationality and the communicative forces that guide it.

Psychorhetoric and the Psychology of Thought

How Society Shapes and is Shaped by Economic Thinking

Social Economies

Contributions to Economics

This book examines the revolutionary impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on communication and collaboration. In recent years, advances in large language models and deep learning have enabled seamless human communication across diverse languages and even with other species, such as dogs and humpback whales. AI is also unlocking the language of plants, including tomatoes and the 'wood wide web.'
The book explores how technologies in natural language processing, image recognition, audio analysis, and network analysis facilitate unprecedented fuzzy data analysis. This progress is crucial for promoting sustainability and addressing climate change by uncovering patterns in complex environmental data that inform sustainable practices and policies. The book further focuses on studying interspecies communication, where AI technologies decode communication patterns between humans and other species, allowing a better understanding of the natural world. It highlights how plants can capture human emotions, enhancing well-being and productivity.
Presenting empirical applications and case studies, the book analyzes societal, economic, and ecological implications, advancing theoretical insights, and introducing innovative methods. It will appeal to an interdisciplinary audience of scholars, students, and researchers in the social sciences, economics, business, sociology, psychology, environmental studies, and media and communication who are interested in a deeper understanding of how artificial intelligence and interspecies communication can contribute to building a sustainable future.&nbsp;

Connecting Species

Artificial Intelligence and Networks for a Sustainable Future

A new paradigm based on quantum probability that can model stock markets and price options—and also upends classical quantitative finance. In The Quantum Stock Market, David Orrell combines theory and new empirical findings to argue for a new approach to finance based on quantum probability. The main finding, a property called q-variance, may be unique in finance in that it was discovered as the result of a prediction, affects financial markets in general, has no tunable parameter, and has important consequences for a range of topics including the pricing of financial options. The property, which somehow eluded detection for over a century, has been verified by experts in the field. And the fact that it is incompatible with classical finance—which is perhaps why it went undetected—suggests that the field must be reinvented. The aim of this book is therefore nothing less than to initiate a paradigm shift in finance. As with any new work that challenges existing methods, the ideas have already received considerable pushback from a range of sources, including leaders in the field of finance, along with physicists skeptical of applying quantum probability outside its traditional domain. Written in an interdisciplinary style that mixes mathematical equations, data analysis, and informed comment on the field of finance, it should be read by anyone—including students, academics, and practitioners—who wants to be on the right side of a paradigm shift.

And the Road Not Taken in Finance

The Quantum Stock Market

This book bridges a fundamental aspect of human behavior, empathy, with a critical area of social science, economics. It introduces readers to the concept of empathy and situates it within broad economic thought, from strategic decision-making in game theory to its role in management, health, education, welfare, and migration.

Through interdisciplinary research spanning development economics, welfare economics, behavioral economics, business management, psychology, political science, and more, the book offers an exploration of empathy’s impact on economic behavior. It examines historical and contemporary economic models, highlighting both the potential benefits and limitations of empathy-driven approaches.

Rather than presenting empathy as a rigid normative concept, the book encourages critical discussions, fostering new research and ideations on empathic economic models. Beneficial for economists, policymakers, and scholars, it challenges traditional economic frameworks and advocates for integrating empathy into economic planning to enhance human well-being.

This book extends the literature on multidimensional poverty/deprivation by providing insights into the well-being of the US population. Written for policymakers, researchers, economists, and others studying poverty, this resource documents multidimensional deprivation in the US, examines variation in its incidence and intensity across demographic cohorts and geographic locales, and considers the corresponding implications for the American social contract.Multidimensional deprivation is chronicled using data extracted from the 2008–2023 American Community Survey Public Use Microdata surveys (ACS-PUMS). The extensive data, which includes information for nearly 48 million individuals, enables a thorough exploration of multidimensional deprivation in the US, serving as a valuable complement to the official income-based measures of poverty.&nbsp;&nbsp;Roger White
 is Professor of Economics and Douglas W. Ferguson Chair in International Economics at Whittier College. White is the author or editor of nine books, including five published by Palgrave Macmillan: 
 Intersectionality and Discrimination 
 (2023), 
 Multidimensional Poverty in America 
 (2020), 
 Public Opinion on Economic Globalization 
 (2017), 
 Measuring Multidimensional Poverty and Deprivation 
 (2017), and 
 Making Sense of Anti-Trade Sentiment
 (2014).

Deprivation in America

The scientific understanding of energy, matter, and spacetime has advanced rapidly, whereas the study of information—its properties, behavior, and dynamics—remains underdeveloped. Despite the complexity of knowledge and information, our conceptual and empirical grasp of its evolution lags significantly behind. Progress in disciplines such as artificial intelligence, genomics, cognitive science, cyber governance, global ecology, and quantum mechanics depends critically on a more rigorous understanding of information dynamics. Absent such insight, humanity risks succumbing to entropic forces that threaten systemic stability and long-term survival.

In this book, Klaus Jaffe addresses the limitations of prior treatments of infodynamics, many of which have been incomplete, imprecise, or conceptually flawed. It offers an interdisciplinary investigation into the relationship between information and energy, drawing on theoretical and empirical contributions from economics, biology, and physics. By challenging conventional paradigms, the book constructs a conceptual framework that bridges disparate scientific domains and societal processes. The resulting synthesis opens new avenues for empirical inquiry and policy-relevant research, with implications for both academic scholarship and public discourse.

Inviting readers to explore the evolving frontier of information science, the book highlights the role of information and its impact on both natural and social systems.

Springer Climate

This book explores the impact of our consumption habits on the planet and how global crises can transform them. Connecting climate policy, sustainable development, and consumer behavior, it offers a clear framework for understanding responsible consumption. Additionally, the book examines EU climate targets, circular economy principles, and the role of digital commerce in shaping environmental outcomes. 
&nbsp;
Through an analysis of five major global crises ranging from the 1973 oil shock to the current climate emergency, the book illustrates how recent disruptions, such as the pandemic and the Russo-Ukrainian War, can prompt more conscientious choices while revealing the obstacles to lasting change. With real-world case studies and evidence-based policy insights, the book provides researchers, policymakers, and individuals interested in climate action with theoretical insights and practical tools.
