Neuroeconomics has the potential to fundamentally change the way economics is done. This article identifies the ways in which this will occur, pitfalls of this approach, and areas where progress has already been made.

While most economists will not contribute to the neuroeconomics literature, we contend that most economists should be reading these studies.
