Description

Economics as an Evolutionary Science: From Utility to Fitness offers a fresh perspective on the study of wealth and commodities. While traditional economics focuses on the production, consumption, exchange, and distribution of wealth through microeconomics and macroeconomics, this work addresses a fundamental gap in the field. Standard economic models often overlook the actual characteristics and motivations of the human subjects they aim to study. By shifting the focus from traditional utility to evolutionary fitness, this book provides a new way to understand human behavior. It challenges the way economists track the comings and goings of the human household and attempts to improve the predictive power of economic science. This text is designed for those looking to move beyond standard models and explore how evolutionary principles can create a more accurate explanatory and predictive science. It is an essential read for students and professionals interested in the theory and philosophy of economic behavior.
