About this title: In this accessible analysis, an economist examines the psychology behind world economic developments and sociological phenomena and argues that conventional economic models inaccurately reflect the complexity of human behavior. Emphasizing the relationship between chaos theory and economics, he asserts that economists should learn from biology as well as engineering to better understand the sophisticated ways in which human interaction at the micro level can have a large-scale impact. Illustrations throughout.
