Through three figures the hustler, the sucker, and the nobody-cares agent Nobody Cares reveals the hidden logic of modern behavior. Using tools of game theory, this book shows how indifference can be rational. Through epistemic logic, it explains how everyone can know and still not act. Drawing on attention economics, it reveals why caring has become costly.
We live in the age of indifference. Yet the real problem is not that nobody cares. It is that everyone acts as if nobody else does.
"This is a book for anyone troubled by the gap between what we know and what we do and, for those whose task it is to teach others to care, an illuminating formal analysis."
Sonja Smets, ILLC, University of Amsterdam
