Predictably Irrational
Just finished reading “Predictably Irrational” by Dan Ariely. It was an unabridged audiobook, so my wife claims I didn’t “read” it though. Call it what you wish; I absorbed it into my melon. It was a very fascinating look into why we make the decisions that we do. I especially like how he describes the various experiments he and his colleagues performed. It also helped that the reader had a wonderful british accent, so that made the experience very enjoyable. All in all, I highly recommend this title, and I plan on giving it 4 stars. Cheers.

-More on the guy. I haven’t read the books but I would like to find time. I have watched the videos and they are fascinating.
