Title: | Snapshot Aesthetics as a Strategic Resource |

Abstract: | The snapshot, a straightforward, generally unposed photograph of everyday life, has emerged as an important style in contemporary strategic communication. Many recent ads portray models in classic snapshot poses – out of focus, eyes closed, poorly framed – in contrast to more traditional and historical patterns of formal studio shots or highly posed tableaux. Companies such as Volkswagen, IKEA, American Apparel, Ford Motor Company, Apple, and Coca-Cola present snapshot-like images in their print, television and Internet communications. This paper begins a conceptual assessment of snapshot aesthetics as a strategic resource, adopting a genre-based perspective influenced by art historical methods and assumptions. |

Diagnosing Coeliac Disease: A Patient's Journey and the Future of Testing
Presented in National Medical Students Paediatric Conference (NMSPC) 2013, Brighton, UK
Sarah Rose
The University of Nottingham, UK
Diagnosis of coeliac disease in paediatric patients can have a wide range of consequences, both before and after diagnosis occurs. This poster explores the diagnosis and investigation of coeliac disease from the perspective of my 6 year old patient, and the future of diagnostic testing in coeliac patients.
Coeliac disease is a systemic immune-mediated disorder caused by the ingestion of gliadin and other prolamins in wheat, rye and barley (Harris et al, 2012). It mainly affects the small intestine where the immune response causes proliferation of the epithelial cells, infiltration of lymphocytes and flattening of the intestinal mucosa (Ciclitira et al, 2005). Serological testing is the current focus of diagnosis; the NICE (National Institute of Health and Care Excellence) guidelines recommend IgA tTGA (transglutaminase antibody) and IgA EMA (endomysial antibody) serological tests as they show high levels of sensitivity and specificity for coeliac disease compared to other tests like gliadin antibody tests. IgA tTGA is the first line, and if this is equivocal (as in my patient?s case) then IgA EMA should be tested. If this is positive, referral for intestinal biopsy is the next step (National Institute of Clinical Excellence, 2009).
However, rapid progress is being made in the field of coeliac disease diagnosis with potential of HLA typing, HLA-DQ2-gliadin tetramers and deamidated gliadin peptide antibodies and it is possible that in the future, jejunal biopsy will no longer be the gold standard for diagnosis. This has the potential to be of great benefit, particularly in paediatric diagnosis.

Question from kregdh
Help with installation?
I lost my manual. Can I still install some way or am I completely screwed if I dont buy a new game. Please answer. (Come on I made an account for msn to ask this question!)
4 years ago
Tell us wether you lost your readme (The manual in the computer) or the paper manual (The manual in a piece or paper. Usually a small paper.)
4 years ago
Well, maybe your not screwed up. I saw this video in youtube (accidentally) that you can install the game even though you lost your manual. But the problem is, I forget the title. Just keep looking. Anyway, if your talking about the readme, just use this step. This takes time......but works. (BUt if you can't do it, don't blame me. Blame the video maker guy.....)
Or perhaps just buy a new one.
Hope THIS helps.......

re: LNG212
Instead of actual food (which doesn't last long) why not consider something like tea spoons or balls. The price for those stainless steel spoons go from $1.75 - $3.00.
Almost anything in the tea gift department would fit the bill nicely and they look good.0
We recently received one of these as a favor and I had no idea it was in that price range.
It's commercial quality, and a very durable item, but I really have no use for it (surprisingly). Maybe you can get some ideas by browsing restaurant supply stores and adding some finishing touches of your own (candy, flowers, etc). Get creative. Whatever you decide,
that favor is a reflection of you.This is it ---> http://www.lnt.com/product/index.jsp?...

Rent-to-Buy Retail: UK Market Profile And Forecasts
NEW YORK, Jan. 29, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Reportlinker.com announces that a new market research report is available in its catalogue:
Rent-to-Buy Retail: UK Market Profile and Forecasts
Rent-to-buy is a fast-growing segment of retailing in the UK, expanding to take up some of the increasing degree of slack on the high street. These retailers are frequently criticised for imposing a combination of credit terms and insurances which leads to items being significantly more expensive than via other channels. However, for many consumers, they increasingly make it possible for them to obtain goods which would not otherwise be accessible. This report aims to explore these views. It also considers the factors which have driven the high rates of growth that the sector has experienced and sets our views on how likely it is to continue in the future.
In this report we review the UK rent-to-buy, or hire purchase, retail market. We quantify the market size, historical growth rates and levels of industry profitability while reviewing key factors behind these figures. We also carry out an in-depth analysis of the relevant drivers of industry growth – in particular the macroeconomic environment and supplier trends – setting out historical trends and available forecasts. Our forecast for industry growth is based on this analysis of historical trends and growth drivers. We believe that, in order for those involved in the market to make the best decisions in this complex and changing environment, they need to have access to the best information. The aim of this report is to provide this. It is intended for: - Operators of rent-to-buy retail businesses themselves- Investors in these businesses- Retail property-owners, developers and landlords- Market regulators and policymakers- Banks, analysts, consultants and other parties with interests in the sectorCheck Out Our Best Services for Investors

TUESDAY, March 6 (HealthDay News) -- Some women who take estrogen-only hormone replacement therapy to stave off hot flashes, night sweats and other symptoms of menopause may be at lower risk for developing breast cancer down the road, a news study says.
Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) fell from grace rather dramatically after a large government-run trial, the U.S. Women's Health Initiative, was stopped early in 2002 because HRT was shown to increase the risk of strokes and breast and ovarian cancer. Since that time, however, some subtleties have emerged as researchers parsed the evidence further. For example, short-term use of HRT is now deemed fairly safe for some women who have severe menopausal symptoms.
The new study shows that longer-term use of estrogen-only therapy may actually lower a woman's odds of developing breast cancer. Estrogen-only therapy is reserved for women who have had a hysterectomy; women with an intact uterus who use HRT must take the hormone progestin with estrogen to prevent uterine cancer.
"Women who have had a hysterectomy may be reassured that taking estrogen by itself, short term, to relieve menopausal symptoms will not increase their risk of breast cancer," said study author Garnet Anderson of the Women's Health Initiative Clinical Coordinating Center at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center in Seattle. Women should not take estrogen to prevent breast cancer, she stressed.
The new findings were published in the March 7 online edition of The Lancet Oncology.
The North American Menopause Society recently released a position statement that backs up these findings. The group said starting combination hormone therapy (both estrogen and progestin) around the time of menopause to treat symptoms and stave off the brittle-bone disease osteoporosis is safe for some women for three to five years. Estrogen alone can be used for longer

500 rounds MFS 2000 7.62x39mm 123 grain FMJ Ammo is rated out of 5 by 7.Rated 5 out of 5 by TexasCummins from Good Value Everything came well packaged, and looks to be exactly what was ordered. Attracts a magnet, and bullet is of bi-metal construction, but that is fine for what I will be using it for.Date published: 2015-02-20Rated 5 out of 5 by JEFFREY K from This ammo is top quality for the price! I use their .223 as well and have never had any problems! The zinc coating is much better than the poly coating which is harder to clean out of the action. GOOD PRODUCT!!!!Date published: 2013-11-11Rated 2 out of 5 by ROBERT from Took some to the range Thursday. It shot great and no problems feeding in my AR in 7.62x39.Date published: 2013-10-12Rated 5 out of 5 by CHRISTOPHER from Ammo fed flawlessly through my AK. The price was fantastic.Date published: 2013-06-13Rated 4 out of 5 by MICHAEL from Great product. Many ranges won't let you use steel case ammo usually run in Saiga, AK and SKS type rifles. For this caliber its a great value for range ammo.Date published: 2012-10-23Rated 5 out of 5 by KEVIN from Good bang for the buck !!Date published: 2011-11-01Rated 3 out of 5 by REIN from they work.Date published: 2011-07-22

Remembering the Early Days of L.A. Television

Reclassifying broadband access under Title II is like pounding in push pins into a cork board with a sledgehammer. The intent is to impose network neutrality rules—no blocking, throttling or fast lanes—of which there have been a total of two incidents.
Broadcast's Future Depends On Consumer Electronics
As the 2015 International CES was winding down, there was enough news out of the show indicated that—when it comes to gaining a foothold with millennials who disdain the concept of "television"—broadcast television has its work cut out for it.

When gasoline sold at record prices, Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., said, "I think it's time to say to these people, 'Stop ripping off the American people.'" When the average price of regular gas was close to $4 a gallon, Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., called for Congress to look into breaking up giant oil companies. The claim was that "Wall Street greed (was) fueling high gas prices."
On Monday, President Obama will unveil his proposed federal budget for 2016. Voters should be warned that virtually all the numbers reported in news coverage of the federal budget will be misleading at best.
This week marks the 50th anniversary of the death of Sir Winston Churchill, Britain's prime minister during World War II. Churchill took up painting as a hobby in 1915, after the Gallipoli debacle, where 46,000 allied lives were lost over nine months of the campaign. He went on to paint more than 500 paintings during his lifetime. As wartime prime minister, he took a break from painting, focusing instead on the task at hand - winning the war, no matter the cost.
Enthusiastic, entertaining, energized and eminent, President Obama's demeanor and delivery at the State of the Union belied his political reality. Unbowed, unbroken and possibly unaffected by the recent midterm Republican wave, Obama displayed his great skill by delivering an emotional teleprompter-driven speech that was a throwback to his first election. Varying tempo, pitch, passion and inflection, his speech was more a theatrical performance than a delivery of a prewritten, pre-released text.
Our 18-year-old granddaughter is living with us again as she goes to school, and I love having her. It reminds me of the time she was a baby living with us, and she was the love of my life - besides Molly, of course - and I took her everywhere. I packed her on my back as I covered meetings, we visited Disneyland every week, I decked her out in Disney clothes, we rode every mall merry-go-round in Southern California, we watched some of the most God-awful movies together - the adventures of Lava Boy being the worst - we enjoyed our evening walks ...
My first week of legislative "work" is complete, and it has been a whirlwind. It is hard to imagine how any person can meet so many people and deal with so many issues so quickly. Luckily, I have a very good mentor in former Representative Doug Holt who is helping me wade through the distractions.
Last week's column focused on the ways liberals use blacks in pursuit of their leftist agenda, plus their demeaning attitudes toward black people. Most demeaning are their double standards. It was recently reported that Rep. Steve Scalise, R-La., the House majority whip, spoke at a 2002 gathering hosted by white supremacist leaders when he was a Louisiana state representative. Some are calling on Scalise to step down or for House Speaker John Boehner to fire him. There's no claim that Scalise made racist statements.
As members of the 114th Congress were sworn into office on Tuesday, their party affiliations described what happened last November: 246 of the 435 representatives and 54 of the 100 senators are Republican.
As we enter 2015, the politics of the president's health care law are little changed from last year or the year before, or any year since it was passed. The details change with the calendar, but year after year, the law remains a major drag on President Obama's popularity and legacy.
It's a fortunate thing that Bill O'Reilly's latest book, "Killing Patton," was written by him and not someone else. In that case, O'Reilly would have taken the poor person apart, criticizing the book for its chaotic structure, for its considerable padding and for its repellent admiration of a war-loving martinet who fought the Nazis and really never understood why. George S. Patton stood almost shoulder to shoulder with them in his anti-Semitism -- not that O'Reilly seems to have noticed or, for that matter, mentioned in his book.
Politicians like to talk about empowering the middle class or other segments of the voting population, but they're typically a little fuzzy on what empowerment really means. That makes sense when you consider that elections are essentially about politicians asking to get power rather than share it.
"They are ruthless, single-minded and totally committed." - British security adviser; Source: "The Times of London," Aug. 16, 2006.
With just under six weeks to the Nov. 4 Election Day, the pressure is on. With a Democratic sitting president with a low 44 percent approval rating, many Republican races across the nation are being run by tying the Democratic candidate to the president. In many cases, this might indeed create distaste for the Democratic candidate by the voters and lead to a Republican victory. But, with no clear path forward, who is to say that the voters won't be just as disgruntled in a few years with Republicans?
I have one of the most interesting jobs in the world. One day I am advising world leaders on the nuances of international monetary policy. The next day I am consoling a distraught reader who thinks I need to "look within myself spiritually." The last time I looked within myself, I saw my navel. It was full of lint. Never again.
Of all the experts I have read or consulted lately about the situation in the Middle East, the one who made the most sense was quoted recently in The New York Times. She's Jennifer Shelton-Armstrong, identified as a 45-year-old Democrat in Mission Viejo, California, who participated in a poll about President Obama's handling of foreign policy and terrorism. This is what she said: "He is ambivalent, and I think it shows. There is no clear plan."
In 21st-century America, hope and change comes from tech-inspired entrepreneurs.
I have a friend who recently retired.
At the age of 91, Henry Kissinger has published yet another book - his 17th in 60 years, according to his biographer Walter Isaacson. In that sense, "World Order" is something of a miracle, but it is also a swell read. So, I initially thought, was a review of it in The New York Times by John Micklethwait, the editor-in-chief of the admirable Economist magazine - and I praised it to him in an email. A bit later, I did a double-take. I still like the book, but Micklethwait's review is a different matter.
The Woman Who Shares My Name instructed me that this week's column was to be about positive things. She says she is tired of bad news and thought you felt the same way. "Surely, you can find some positive things to write about," she said, "and temporarily take people's minds off all the terrible things going on in the world. I think your readers would appreciate that."
President Obama's health care law is the gift that keeps on giving to the GOP.
At a July fundraising event in Chicago, Mrs. Michelle Obama remarked, "So, yeah, there's too much money in politics. There's (sic) special interests that have too much influence." Sen. John McCain has been complaining for years that "there is too much money washing around political campaigns today." According to a 2012 Reuters poll, "Seventy-five percent of Americans feel there is too much money in politics." Let's think about money in politics, but first a few facts.
According to a Gallup Poll released this week, "Americans' trust in the federal government to handle international problems has fallen to a record-low 43 percent, ... Separately, 40 percent of Americans say they have a 'great deal' or 'fair amount' of trust in the federal government to handle domestic problems, also the lowest Gallup has measured to date." (Poll conducted September 4-7, 2014, with 1,017 adults, 95 percent confidence level, +/- 4 points).
What is it that makes so many blacks so angry? What is it that makes so many of them blame the realities of life that beset everyone, e.g., debt, disappointment, etc., a result of their being black?
Remember the story of "The Little Engine That Could?" That could very well describe the city of Dalton, a town of some 34,000 nestled in the corner of Northwest Georgia, not far from the Tennessee line.

OpinionThe end of one dream and the birth of another The Arab Spring has empowered Muslims to create new forms of leadership - dictators and mass-murderers "need not apply". 13 May 2011 13:49 GMT | Politics, Indonesia, Iraq, Kuwait, Morocco About the Author Robert Grenier Former CIA station chief Robert Grenier heads ERG Partners, a financial consultancy firm. Story highlightsIt comes as no surprise that reactions in the Islamic world to the death of Osama bin Laden should be so muted.Yes, we've seen the ritual postings on the so-called jihadi websites, including statements from the supposed al-Qaeda "general command", promising revenge and exhorting Pakistanis to rise up against an impious government of "traitors and thieves". No surprises there; but these outpourings represent a minuscule population, however dangerous they may be at a retail level.And no doubt these fulminations by al-Qaeda generate an echo from the extreme fringes of the Salafi movement, from those who would actually embrace the dark, obscurantist, mono-chromatic governance championed by the Afghan Taliban and its al-Qaeda mentors, and for whom Sheikh Osama is not only a champion, but a model. But such views As the 'Arab Spring' progresses, young people across the Muslim world are leaving old ideas of resistance to the West behind and taking the future into their own hands [GALLO/GETTY] It comes as no surprise that reactions in the Islamic world to the death of Osama bin Laden should be so muted. Yes, we've seen the ritual postings on the so-called jihadi websites, including statements from the supposed al-Qaeda "general command", promising revenge and exhorting Pakistanis to rise up against an impious government of "traitors and thieves". No surprises there; but these outpourings represent a minuscule population, however dangerous they may be at a retail level. And no doubt these fulminations by al-Qaeda generate an echo from the extreme fringes of the Salafi movement, from those who would actually embrace the dark, obscurantist, mono-chromatic governance championed by the Afghan Taliban and its al-Qaeda mentors, and for whom Sheikh Osama is not only a champion, but a model. But such views clearly have scant resonance among the broad, healthy-minded mass of the general Muslim population. And yes, there have been condemnations of bin Laden's killing from groups far closer to the mainstream, such as the Muslim Brotherhood and Hamas, who praised the Saudi exile as "an Arab and Muslim warrior". But these are the reactions of what we might call "Islamic nationalists". For them, Osama was a symbol of resistance to the overbearing West. Osama's resistance was outdated No matter how steadfast the Sheikh may have seemed in resisting perceived western encroachment, no matter how sincere he may have been in pursuit of his twisted aims, it is difficult to muster great sympathy for a man so utterly misguided, whose takfiri legacy was to inspire the wanton murder of thousands of Muslims by other Muslims in East Africa, in Iraq, and in any number of other places extending from Morocco to Indonesia. Even in South Asia, where the presence of a huge Western army in Afghanistan and near-daily violations of Pakistani sovereignty have created a very different dynamic, in which previously disparate Islamic-inspired groups, pursuing their own highly parochial concerns, have increasingly come to identify with a global jihad whose agenda has largely been set by al-Qaeda - even there, one cannot find the groundswell of popular emotion one might have found had bin Laden been killed, say, in 2002. Too much has happened since. The response of the West to 9/11 and the explosion of regional militancy it has inspired has led, ultimately, to a degree of Muslim-on-Muslim violence heretofore unimaginable, employing the most alien and macabre of methods, in what was already a violent part of the world. Even the demonstrations of the usual suspects, from the Jamaat-e-Islami to Lashkar-e-Taiba, have had a ritual, self-serving quality - and their participants betray the dispirited knowledge that they can hope to generate little resonance in the population at large. Indeed, their public outpourings appear to have more to do with them than they do with genuine devotion to Osama. It was the fate of bin Laden that, in the end, he would become to most in the Muslim world a sterile symbol of ineffectual resistance, fundamentally rejected by those whom he would presume to represent. There is no greater indictment of the legacy of bin Laden than that his appeal was based upon an overwhelming sense of Muslim weakness. It thus is fitting that he should meet his demise precisely when a new generation is rising up to forge a different path, one based on an overwhelming sense of popular strength. There is precedent for this. I remember well the feeling in the Arab street in 1990, when Saddam Hussein invaded Kuwait and defied the calls of the West and of the international community to withdraw. I saw it from the streets of Algiers, where mass demonstrations built inexorably in size and vigour as momentum increased for a US-led attack on Saddam's Republican Guard. Those who surrounded the US embassy chanting pro-Saddam slogans surely had no illusions about the man: He was a thug and a known mass-murderer of his own people, whose greatest atrocities were yet to come. But then and there, the reality of the man counted for little. What mattered was the image, the symbol of a seemingly powerful Arab leader willing to stand up to the West. Paper tigers When, in the end, Saddam was overwhelmingly and ignominiously defeated, and his army revealed to be a paper tiger, one might have expected to see a popular explosion. In fact, we saw nothing of the kind. It is the singular fate of the personally discredited symbol to lose all popular support when his resistance is revealed to be a sham - and has come to an end. In the case of the Iraqi dictator, it was like air escaping from a balloon: As Saddam's legions fled northward in disorder, the headline of a popular newspaper in Algiers said it all: The End of the Dream. In the Arab street, there was a collective shrug, and everyone went back to what they were doing before. In truth, the promise represented by Saddam Hussein was not a dream, but a nightmare. It should not be the fate of the Muslims to be "liberated" by mass-murderers, whether Saddam or Osama, whose contempt for the core beliefs and aspirations of most of those whom they pretended to lead was palpable. Instead, and in spite of the many obstacles ahead, one can see in the middle distance a very different sort of liberation, one forged by and for the people themselves, based on models which exist within the Muslim world, and carrying the tangible hope of a future where the leaders are servants to the desires of the people, and not the other way around.

I have been searching for green cardstock so that I can finish Madison's birthday invitations. The problem is that I can't find what I'm looking for. I would prefer premade cards with matching envelopes, but I want them to be green (like grass green) on the outside and white on the inside. I'm also looking for something that is a 4x6 and I'm not even sure if it exists. If I can't find that I'm okay with making my own, but I still want one side to be green and the other side white. Does anyone know where I can find something like this? I have looked at AC Moore, Michaels, JoAnns, and Staples. Are there any good websites that might have what I'm looking for?
hmmm...i have never seen anything like that. i bet you'll have to make them yourself!
When I make cards lately, I use cardstock on the outside (you would want green) and then plain paper on the inside (your white) attached with glue or tape, etc. I cut it slightly smaller and it ends up with a border around the insert (your inside would be white with a green border).

Actually, I do have some of exactly what you are talking about Lisa! I looked through my stash and even have 2 cards of green. (I'd send them to you, but I know that's not enough anyways.) They are pre-folded cards that are solids on the outside, white on the inside. I got them from Hobby Lobby or Michael's. I wish I could remember what brand they are. Let me do a quick search and see if I can find them ok?

What were they doing on his property in the first place? Let me see, I bet they were there to make amends and invite Mr. Soles to an awards banquet for being the best Senator there ever was. LOL. Or better yet, they noticed the front door to the Senator's house was locked and they thought there might be a fire inside and he needed assistance, so they kicked in the door only to find out that he was ok. That's what their attorney will say. But then Mr. Soles could say that he was cleaning his gun and it just went off. »

Go bankrupt, win a taxpayer funded prize: A123 Systems received million dollar DOE grant payment on same day it declared Chapter 11
Tweet |
**Written by Doug Powers
Last month Michelle wrote about A123 Systems declaring bankruptcy. A123 was one of the many "clean energy grant" recipients that ended up going under and taking a pile of taxpayer cash with it — a pile that was made even bigger on its final day. In a demonstration of the kind of diligence we've come to expect from this administration, the Department of Energy gave A123 Systems a nearly million dollar payment on the same day the company declared bankruptcy:
The company, which makes lithium ion batteries for electric cars, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection last month after a rescue deal with Chinese auto parts supplier Wanxiang Group fell apart.
That same day, October 16, A123 received a $946,830 payment as part of its $249 million clean energy grant from the Energy Department, the company said in a letter, obtained by Reuters, to Republican Senators John Thune and Chuck Grassley.
In the letter, dated November 14, A123 said the October payment was the most recent disbursement it had received from the government, with an additional $115.8 million still outstanding on the grant.
More from Business Week:
The payment was made after A123 in August announced it planned to give Wanxiang Group Corp., China's largest auto-parts maker, a majority stake in exchange for financing. Grassley and Thune had questioned the Chinese investment in the U.S. company.
"All of this paints a disturbing picture," Grassley and Thune said in an e-mailed statement. "The Department of Energy is writing checks to a company literally as it is declaring bankruptcy."
If the DOE is going to insist on dumping taxpayer money into sinkholes like these, they should at least get those plants re-tooled and have them make something there's actually now a large demand for: Twinkies.

Frost & Sullivan: Contact Center Analytics Improves Overall Customer Experience, Increases Revenue And Reduces Costs
SINGAPORE, July 1, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- In rapidly changing business environments under increasingly uncertain economic conditions, enterprises face the mammoth task of balancing revenue growth and maximizing profitability while simultaneously upholding service quality, efficiency, and effectiveness.
As more companies aim to use excellence in customer service to differentiate their brand in the marketplace, there is a strong focus on the customer experience. Customer interaction analytics tools can offer enterprises the requisite insight to achieve such goals.
Contact center analytics, broadly categorized into performance analytics (PA) and customer interaction analytics (CIA), is a means of capturing the nuances of a burgeoning movement in centers to express their operational results in terms of overall business objectives.
"The Asia Pacific contact center analytics market is well set to grow at a CAGR of 13.8 percent to reach US$159.8 million by 2018 due to excellent growth drivers that are present in regional markets," said Krishna Baidya, Research Manager for ICT, Frost & Sullivan Asia Pacific.
He added, "With cost effectiveness being one of the key parameters for Asia Pacific contact centers, they will continue to pursue solutions that are likely to offer increased savings and a competitive edge. Contact centers across the region will continue to invest in optimizing their operations, resulting in a strong demand for workforce management (WFM) solutions and performance analytics tools." Contact centers across Asia Pacific markets currently support multiple customer interaction channels, including telephony, email, social media, and the Web, as they look to integrate these channels into a contact center with a holistic view of the customer and the interaction. "At present, customer satisfaction rates for many cross-channel experiences are poor. Multi-channel analytics will prove to be critical in determining where improvements can be made and will impact the customer experience," Krishna added.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Cashews, Coffee Mugs, and the Birth of Behavioral Economics

The theory that human beings act rationally and in their own best interest has dominated economics since the publication of Adam Smith's influential book, "Wealth of Nations." More recently, however, research in psychology and economics has uncovered evidence that the opposite is true: people do not always make rational choices. This chapter looks at examples of irrational consumer behavior as it details the quest of some economists to show how irrational forces can influence market transactions--a foundational principle of the relatively nascent field of behavioral economics. This chapter is excerpted from "Free Market Madness: Why Human Nature Is at Odds with Economics--and Why It Matters."
learning objective:
To show that the market is determined by a subtle mix of rational and irrational decision making, rather than by one or the other.
subjects covered:
Behavioral finance; Economics; Social psychology
