Before Freakonomics and The Tipping Point there was this classic by the 2005 Nobel Laureate in Economics.
Little will be done in the near future to reduce greenhouse gas emissions - providing an opportunity to develop programmes for research, subsidization, and regulation. This text focuses on specific issues, such as global climate change, and the institutional arrangements required to deal with them.
All of the essays in this new collection by Thomas Schelling convey his unique perspective on individuals and society. Schelling, a 2005 Nobel Prize winner, has been one of the four or five most important social scientists of the past fifty years, and this collection shows why.
In Choice and Consequence, Thomas Schelling ventures where rationality is ambiguous, exploring topics as awesome as nuclear terrorism, as sordid as blackmail, as ineffable as daydreaming, as intimidating as euthanasia. He examines ethical issues wrapped up in economics, and discloses ethical issues that are misplaced or misidentified.
