Behavioural economics and policy for pandemics: pandemics as tipping points

This book is the product of recent insights and contributions at the time of the global COVID-19 pandemic by several scholars in behavioural economics and health policy that are, in one way or another associated in some way with the London School of Economics (LSE). The book also benefits from many years of working together with a variety of collaborators in leading academic universities, policy-making bodies, public health authorities, and international institutions. The aim of this book is to bring closer together the perspectives and contributions of behavioural economics specialising in health, and health economists focused on behaviour, as well as health and behavioural public policy pieces providing lessons from the COVID-19 pandemic and in understanding the preparedness and response to future pandemics
