About the Author

David Savage is interested in the behavioural analysis of the extreme, from natural and man-made disasters (floods and terrorism) to high stress work and play environments (mountaineers to police). David seeks to marry the broader social sciences to the empirical rigor of behavioural economics, focusing on the decision of individuals.

He is a Fellow of the CESifo Research Network and the Center for Research in Economics, Management and the Arts. Author of several books and journal articles, Torgler has contributed to various fields within and beyond economics.
