      abstract = {Orthodox neoclassical economics portrays reason as far  more important than emotion, autonomy as more  characteristic of economic life than social connection,  and, more generally, things culturally and cognitively  associated with masculinity as more central than things  associated with femininity. Research from contemporary  neuroscience suggests that such biases are related to  certain automatic processes in the brain, and feminist  scholarship suggests ways of getting beyond them. The  "happiness" and "interpersonal relations" research programs  have made substantial progress in overcoming a number these  biases. Analysis from a feminist economics perspective  suggests, however, several fronts on which research could  most profitably continue.},
