Part II of this book focuses on financial markets, markets in which funds are trans- ferred from people who have an excess of available funds to people who have a short- age. Financial markets such as bond and stock markets are crucial to promoting greater economic efficiency by channeling funds from people who do not have a pro- ductive use for them to those who do. Indeed, well-functioning financial markets are a key factor in producing high economic growth, and poorly performing financial markets are one reason that many countries in the world remain desperately poor.

The first edition of this book appeared in 1946. Eight translations were made of it, and there were numerous paperback editions. In a paperback of 1961, a new chapter was added on rent control, which had not been specifically considered in the first edition apart from government price-fixing in general. A few statistics and illustrative references were brought up to date. Otherwise no changes were made until now. The chief reason was that they were not thought necessary.

But empirical evidence gives much reason to doubt these assumptions; people exhibit bounded rationality, bounded self-interest, and bounded willpower. This article offers a broad vision of how law and economics analysis may be improved by increased attention to insights about actual human behavior.

As we wrote in a previous preface, there are two main reasons for pro- ducing a new edition of a textbook. First, the subject may have moved on – this has certainly been true in the area of natural resource and envir- onmental economics. Second, experience in using the text may suggest areas for improvement. Both reasons warrant a third edition now. We will say nothing here about the ways in which the subject area has ‘moved on’ except to note that it has and that you will find those changes reflected in this new edition.

ESSAYS ON EDUCATION INVESTMENT, INCOME INEQUALITY, AND ECONOMIC GROWTH Recall, moreover, that this thought experiment assumes a choice coefficient at the upper limit of the confidence interval. At the point estimate, choice reduces the gradient of SAT scores with respect to student quality. The models in Table 1.4 reject a sizable—by any reasonable standard—effect of choice on the test score gradient.

This year's Latin American Economic Outlook focuses on those in the middle of the income distribution in Latin America. If these middle sectors have stable employment and reasonably robust incomes, then, arguably, they provide a solid foundation for economic progress. Moreover, following the political role often attributed to the middle classes by historians and sociologists, they might also support moderate but progressive political platforms in Latin America's democracies.

The present volume deals with various practical problems in economics, as a volume published a year earlier dealt with the broader economic principles of value and distribution. To the student beginning economics and to the general reader the study of principles is likely to appear more difficult than does that of concrete questions. In fact, the difficulty of the latter, tho less obvious, is equally great.
