Nudge: Preface to the Final Edition
Richard Thaler and Cass Sunstein recently decided to update “Nudge.” Why now and what’s new? They explain in their preface to the “final edition.”
Cass Sunstein is currently the Robert Walmsley University Professor at Harvard University. From 2009 to 2012, he was Administrator of the White House Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs. He is the founder and director of the Program on Behavioral Economics and Public Policy at Harvard Law School. He is author of many articles and books, including Nudge (with Richard Thaler).

I was much influenced by a brilliant, pathbreaking paper, “Picking and Choosing,” by Edna Ullmann-Margalit and Sidney Morgenbesser.
