Animal Spirits: How Human Psychology Drives the Economy and Why it Matters for Global Capitalism

In exploring Audible.com today I came across the audiobook Animal Spirits:  How Human Psychology Drives the Economy and Why it Matters for Global Capitalism by
George A. Akerlof and Robert J. Shiller.

I am still exploring the book and find it very interesting to use the filter of "animal spirits" to explore recent changes in the world's economy.  These concepts address issues of confidence, among others, and how that plays out in terms of unemployment and the economy as a whole.

I am looking for personal insights that I can use to guide my own responses to this economy.
