I noticed that link [1] in the ramifications section does not work? Anyone know where it should lead?

Taking a pseudoscience and turning it into a pseudopseudoscience? Wonderful!

Pseudocomment?

I don't see what is pseudoscientific about applying to economics the observations possible with the instrumentation that neuroscience provides. Traditional economics makes assumptions about the way people behave in markets. Neuroeconomics helps us to validate or falsify those assumptions. With such knowledge there is likely to be wider impact on our understanding of human behaviour in an economic context. Surely a worthwhile endeavour. Matt Stan 10:14, 13 Dec 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Another reference

Here's another reference to add, if someone wants to format it appropriately.

Mind games. (2005, Janurary 15). In The Economist, 374, 71.

[edit] Link to commercial firm ?

The first link ("Applied Neuroscience, Austria") at the external links goes to a kind of advertising for a company.

Is this desired ?
