If I recall correctly, Scitovsky's claims, like those of modern

somewhat more realistic version than neoclassical economics of the

The blurb on the back cover says something about "behavioral
psychology," but it's not behaviorist. It's more physiological.

Kleinian psychoanalysis provides an explanation of "envy" as
psychopathogy

is the Freudian tradition something to admire?
