520    In recent years, remarkable progress has been made in 
       behavioral research on a wide variety of topics, from 
       behavioral finance, labor contracts, philanthropy, and the
       analysis of savings and poverty, to eyewitness 
       identification and sentencing decisions, racism, sexism, 
       health behaviors, and voting. Research findings have often
       been strikingly counterintuitive, with serious 
       implications for public policymaking. In this book, 
       leading experts in psychology, decision research, policy 
       analysis, economics, political science, law, medicine, and
       philosophy explore major trends, principles, and general 
       insights about human behavior in policy-relevant settings.
       Their work provides a deeper understanding of the many 
       drivers--cognitive, social, perceptual, motivational, and 
       emotional--that guide behaviors in everyday settings. They
       give depth and insight into the methods of behavioral 
       research, and highlight how this knowledge might influence
       the implementation of public policy for the improvement of
       society. This collection examines the policy relevance of 
       behavioral science to our social and political lives, to 
       issues ranging from health, environment, and nutrition, to
       dispute resolution, implicit racism, and false 
       convictions. The book illuminates the relationship between
       behavioral findings and economic analyses, and calls 
       attention to what policymakers might learn from this vast 
       body of groundbreaking work. Wide-ranging investigation 
       into people's motivations, abilities, attitudes, and 
       perceptions finds that they differ in profound ways from 
       what is typically assumed. The result is that public 
       policy acquires even greater significance, since rather 
       than merely facilitating the conduct of human affairs, 
       policy actually shapes their trajectory. The first 
       interdisciplinary look at behaviorally informed 
       policymaking. Leading behavioral experts across the social
       sciences consider important policy problems. A compendium 
       of behavioral findings and their application to relevant 
       policy domains.
