World Development Report 2015: Mind, Society, and Behavior

More about the book

The book critiques traditional policy-making approaches that are based on idealized models of human decision-making. It emphasizes the need for a more realistic understanding of how people actually think and make choices in their daily lives. By advocating for this shift in perspective, the report suggests that development policies can be more effective and better tailored to real-world behaviors and decision-making processes.
