Anybody can tell a story that is consistent with the experimental data, after all. Personally, I'm heartened by the revelations that functional MRI has provided about what brains actually do when people make economic decisions. We may be seeing a synthesis of rather astounding dimensions, but it will be a long time coming I suspect.
