«Animal Spirits» is the economics essay by George A. Akerlof and Robert J. Shiller, published by Gestión 2000 in paperback (328 pages, in Spanish).
Drawing on Keynes's «animal spirits», Akerlof and Shiller show how confidence, fear and intuition influence the economy. The book addresses depressions, unemployment, the role of central banks and housing cycles, against the idea that economic decisions are always rational.
Work published in 2009, part of the Economía collection from Gestión 2000. George A. Akerlof received the Nobel Prize in Economics in 2001 and Robert J. Shiller in 2013.
A book for the general public interested in economics and finance, not only for specialists.
