Recenzje

'Adam Oliver's The Origins of Behavioural Public Policy is an impressive and rigorous introduction to an increasingly influential approach to policy design. The book is ideally suited to informed readers who wish to gain a more scholarly understanding of BPP, beyond the level of popular science. It will prove especially valuable to both undergraduate and graduate students aiming to gain knowledge of the central theoretical and empirical building blocks of BPP. It will also be of benefit to policymakers who are interested in a concise but detailed overview of the emergence of the approach, as well as an insightful resource on the potential future development of BPP as a productive form of policy intervention.'
