Choosing the Right Pond: Human Behaviour and the Quest for Status
Robert H. Frank
Is it better to be a big frog in a small pond or a small frog in a big pond? This treatise argues that people's concerns about status permeate and profoundly alter a broad range of human behaviour. It applies these basic elements in human nature to the study of how people make economic choices.
