If you"ve ever wondered what it is that leads you to make those dubious decisions then you need this book! Dan Ariely, bestselling author of Predictably Irrational, unravels the mysteries of what it is that causes us to make irrational decisions both at home and at work. We all leave things to the very last minute even though we know we have a deadline, but why? Looking at examples in his own life as well as some novel experiments, Dan Ariely explores what it is to live irrationally and how being aware of the hidden forces of emotions, meaning and ownership can lead us to better decision-making and ultimately a happier, more contented life.
