From the winner of the Nobel Prize in Economics, Richard H. Thaler, and Cass R. Sunstein: a revelatory look at how we make decisions--for fans of Malcolm Gladwell's Blink and Daniel Kahneman's Thinking Fast and Slow . Every day we make choices--about what to buy or eat, about financial investments or our children's health and education, even about the causes we champion or the planet itself. Unfortunately, we often choose poorly. Nudge is about how we make these choices and how we can make better ones. Using dozens of eye-opening examples and drawing on decades of behavioral science research, Nobel Prize winner Richard H. Thaler and Harvard Law School professor Cass R. Sunstein show that no choice is ever presented to us in a neutral way, and that we are all susceptible to biases that can lead us to make bad decisions. But by knowing how people think, we can use sensible choice architecture to nudge people toward the best decisions for ourselves, our families, and our society, without restricting our freedom of choice.

I am an economist by training. In the spirit of supporting the art I purchased all 3 of Richard Thaler's books. These are easy to read BUT you will need to skip the citations,to keep your interest, which a True research economist is genetically required to provide. You will learn why you should stay away from auctions and other human characteristics. I have often thought that to predict the stock market you had to be able to correctly read humans. One hope for the future of predicting human responses and reactions is: Super artificial Intelligence. If more economic classes taught Mr. Thaler's branch of economics more students would be excited about economics. Learning about economics, i.e. human nature, is as important as learning to balance a check book.
