The End of Theory

Book • 2017
In 'The End of Theory', Richard Bookstaber argues that standard economic models are inadequate for dealing with financial crises due to their failure to account for human complexities and radical uncertainty.

He advocates for an alternative approach using agent-based economics, which recognizes the heuristic interactions of humans in complex environments.

This approach aims to provide a more realistic framework for preventing and managing financial crises.
