Nick Heather on 'Choice, Behavioural Economics and Addiction


Nick describes the background of a conference he convened with Rudy Vuchinich on behavioural economics and its relevance to addiction, and the book that arose from this conference.

He also talks about Alcoholics Anonymous and how its benefits could be applied to secular mutual-aid groups.

He then references the work of Keith Humphreys on self-help groups.
