Recenzje

From the reviews:

"Friedel Bolle and Marco Lehmann-Waffenschmidt have gathered eight surveys, written by leaders in the field of experimental economics. Their volume provides both naive and experienced experimentalists with an overview of the major findings in these areas, as well as a roadmap for future research in the field. ... by pointing out areas that require further research, the volume provides a starting point for researchers newly interested in experimental methods." (Robert J. Oxoby, Eastern Economic Journal, Summer, 2005)
