For most economic aspects of human behaviour, static deci sion models provide an insufficient description.

Spurred by the availability of new mathematical tools such as optimal control theory and dynamic programming, dynamic utility models mushroomed over the last two decades. Various frameworks were developed featuring dif ferent restrictions on the way agents form preferences in an in tertemporal environment.

This book surveys the literature on intertemporal utility and provides a fundamental analysis of dynamic decision making. In the survey part a comprehensive classification system is introduced which allows for a coherent organization of the heterogenous literature on intertemporal utility. The second part addresses fundamental aspects of intertemporal desicion making. Special attention is paid to "dynamic choice mechanisms". These mechanisms are rules which transform an individual`s intertemporal sequence of preferences into actual decisions.
