Stories allow human beings to make sense of an uncertain world. But they also drive economies into booms and busts. Armed with this understanding, we gain a far richer understanding of how economies behave.---Martin Wolf, Financial TimesShiller’s thorough discussion and many examples are certainly convincing as to the importance of narratives in individual economic decision-making and aggregate economic phenomena.---Sonia Jaffe, ScienceEconomics is the study of people at work, but where are the people? Many a learned economist forgets all about them. Not Robert Shiller, the author of Narrative Economics, who believes that volatile human emotion counts for more than you think in the ostensibly objective valuation of stocks, bonds and buildings.---James Grant, Wall Street Journal[Shiller] explores how the public’s subjective perceptions can shape economic trends. . . . A sensible and welcome escape from the dead hand of mathematical models of economics. The EconomistA magisterial account . . . . In some ways . . . a bigger challenge to the foundations of economics than behavioral economics.---Steve Denning, ForbesThe idea that human behaviour can exert its own influence in the market is something that most traders wouldbuy into. . . . But in Narrative Economics, Shiller goes much broader and deeper, looking at how the stories we tell ourselves about the world drive our behaviour. . . . Economists, he argues, need to study this if they are to have any hope of doing a better job than they have in the past of predicting major events . . . and how people react to them.---Rana Foroohar, Financial TimesProvocative . . . . Especially timely in the current social media-obsessed era, because narratives both real and false can spread globally with just a few swipes, affecting not just economic activity, but ultimately the balance of geopolitical power.---Matt Schifrin, ForbesMany economists argue that the US housing market and economy are still on solid foundations, but ignoreShiller’s warnings at your peril. He rarely gets it wrong.---Tom Rees, The TelegraphExcellent.---Gillian Tett, Financial Times[Shiller aims] to identify the enduring narratives that influence the way we think about the economy, and may influence our patterns of spending and saving, and therefore become self-fulfilling prophecies . . . the results are fascinating, and sometimes startling.---Howard Davies, ProspectShiller argues forcefully.---Chris Johns, Irish TimesAny given scenario can allow for multiple narratives, both actual and potential. The question is why some prove more compelling than others. Shiller offers a range of answers, starting with the most obvious: a narrative is compelling when it is engaging and well expressed. Because his book is very well written, Shiller himself has satisfied this criterion.---Barry Eichengreen, Project SyndicateShiller has none of the salesman-like bluster of the stock pickers clamouring for attention on businessTV news . . . . As it is, he has only 40-odd years of being freakishly right about things. It will have to do.---David Morris, Financial NewsHighly readable, compelling.---Steve Levine, MediumThe book is . . . good fun to read. It is full of amusing and apposite quotations, and interesting detail.---Charles Goodhart, Central Banking JournalShiller’s book is a spectacula
