Predictably Irrational: The Hidden Forces That Shape Our Decisions by Dan Ariely
Did not finish book. Stopped at 36%.
DNF 36% in.
I didn’t realize that the human behavior discussed was going to be almost exclusively through a business/capitalistic lens. I still gave it a chance but ultimately found it boring.
The audiobook has music in between captures which definitely makes it feel more like an education program rather than a book.
Lastly, the studies and takeaways that I did read didn’t really impress me and I don’t think the author did very well making a case for causality rather than correlation. Not enough to make me truly believe his conclusions were accurate.
