Praise for Paving Wall Stree "This is a remarkable book that weaves the deep scientific roots of modern finance and modern financial institutions with humorous perspective and considerable wisdom. Few understand the pervasive and complex economic principles that govern our world of finance. Few are aware of the academic and scientific origins of financial practices and market instruments that are commonplace today. Ross Miller uses his experience and talents acquired as an experimental economist to help us understand a world that is contradictory, potentially dangerous, and paradoxical. He entertains us while doing it." —Charles R. Plott, Edward S. Harkness Professor of Economics and Political Science, California Institute of Technolog "Decisions by millions of individuals produce the fierce tides and churning seas of Wall Street. Miller wields his microscope in the laboratory of experimental economics to provide a sprightly and insightful analysis of investor behavior." —Richard Zeckhauser, Frank P.

With no equations and a deft touch, this is an excellent guide to the future of greater Wall Street." —David J. Leinweber, PhD, Economics/Social Sciences, California Institute of Technology
