Sendhil Mullainathan is Professor of Economics at Harvard University. His real passion is behavioral economics, understanding what makes people tick - whether a senior executive in New York or a farmer in rural Tamil Nadu.
He enjoys having written but is of a mixed mind about writing.
He also occasionally enjoys doing: he helped co-found a non-profit to apply behavioral science (ideas42); and has worked in government.
Much to the surprise of who know him well, he is a recipient of the MacArthur "genius" award.
His hobbies include basketball, googling and fixing-up classic espresso machines. He also enjoys speaking about himself in the third person, which works well for bios but less well in daily life.
Eldar Shafir is an American psychologist, and the author of Scarcity: Why Having Too Little Means So Much[1] (with Sendhil Mullainathan). He is the William Stewart Tod Professor of Psychology and Public Affairs at Princeton University Department of Psychology and the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs. He is a Faculty Associate at the Institute for Quantitative Social Science at Harvard University. He is co-founder and Scientific Director at ideas42, a social-science R&D lab. His area of study is behavioral economics, that is, how the decisions people make affect their financial outcomes. His research has led him to the general conclusion that people often make inadvisable decisions on financial matters when they think they are being rational.

A surprising and intriguing examination of how scarcity—and our flawed responses to it—shapes our lives, our society, and our culture
Why do successful people get things done at the last minute? Why does poverty persist? Why do organizations get stuck firefighting? Why do the lonely find it hard to make friends? These questions seem unconnected, yet Sendhil Mullainathan and Eldar Shafir show that they are all are examples of a mind-set produced by scarcity.
Drawing on cutting-edge research from behavioral science and economics, Mullainathan and Shafir show that scarcity creates a similar psychology for everyone struggling to manage with less than they need. Busy people fail to manage their time efficiently for the same reasons the poor and those maxed out on credit cards fail to manage their money. The dynamics of scarcity reveal why dieters find it hard to resist temptation, why students and busy executives mismanage their time, and why sugarcane farmers are smarter after harvest than before. Once we start thinking in terms of scarcity and the strategies it imposes, the problems of modern life come into sharper focus.
Mullainathan and Shafir discuss how scarcity affects our daily lives, recounting anecdotes of their own foibles and making surprising connections that bring this research alive. Their book provides a new way of understanding why the poor stay poor and the busy stay busy, and it reveals not only how scarcity leads us astray but also how individuals and organizations can better manage scarcity for greater satisfaction and success.

读后感
作者对稀缺这一核心概念做了大量严谨而又合乎逻辑的说理，也用了大量的实例来解释稀缺这一核心概念，甚至不厌其烦的反反复复为我们解释带宽、余闲、管窥等几个子概念，好像生怕我们不理解、不相信似的。 耐着性子看到最后三章才发现，作者其实就想告诉我们要未雨绸缪、要储蓄...
评分核心概念： 1、稀缺：拥有少于需要的感觉。 2、带宽：包括两种能力，分别是认知能力（分析、判断、逻辑推理...）和执行控制力（控制行为、控制情绪）。我的理解，就是精力。 3、专注红利：由于稀缺心态，我们会尽力完成事件而带来的积极成果。 4、管窥：专注于某一事物就意味着...

评分《稀缺》我们是如何陷入贫穷与忙碌的。关于稀缺的定义是拥有少于需要的感觉。现象：钱的问题会永远纠缠着穷人，时间问题只会永远烦扰着忙碌之人。你是否遇到这样的事情： 1.要做的事情太多，而用来要做事情的时间又太少，许多事情早就过了原定的截止日期一直在延期越来越让人担...
评分通常的解释是，因为蠢，所以赚钱能力差；因为懒，所以不能吃苦耐劳。两者相加导致穷，副产品是胖，因为意志力薄弱放纵食欲。 任何问题都不会只有一种正确的解释。《稀缺》提出了一个新观点：有没有可能是贫穷（稀缺）本身削弱了智力和意志力，进而加剧了贫穷（稀缺）？这有点...

非常棒的一本书，从一开始对美国人啰嗦的不屑。到最后对解释力和应用范围的敬佩，没有单独讲和commitment device的联系是个遗憾 。读到一身冷汗。
评分简言之“防患于未然”
评分一本书只论证了一个问题：为什么越“穷”会越“穷”？穷，在一定程度上会引起专注。但另一方面，又大量占用了带宽（认知能力和执行能力）。在特定事件的专注（tunnelled），必然导致其他事情被遗忘或盲目。在一系列的救火过程中（firefighting）便不由自主的陷入恶性循环。进一步，富足（abundance）往往也孕育着稀缺的种子。“穷”往往是一系列行为和思维模式所导致。即便在富足时期，稀缺思维和行为也不能为未来带来冗余(slack)和容错(failure tolerance)。缺乏冗余和容错，任何系统都过于刚性，易碎易毁。所以，对个体而言，跳脱这种稀缺陷阱需要冗余和容错机制。对宏观政策，则需明晰个体的思考轨迹，辨别根本原委、建立制度和规则，以改变和完善社会。
评分一句话来回说了一千遍：稀缺性占用你带宽，让你脑子想不清楚，也跳不出来因为稀缺性心态已经深植于潜意识，无论这稀缺是金钱、时间、社交还是卡路里额度。长袖才能善舞，从容（slack）才能不迫（妈的这还要你说
