Amazing read November 4, 2008 This book is awesome. Basically distills a number of fields and ideas that most will already have had exposure with via living, school, etc - but does so with wit and great craftsmanship. Points out our shared irrationality in a novel, entertaining and education fashion.
Factual yet Entertaining November 4, 2008 This is such a great book that explains how predictable our mind works and despite so we often are irrational in making decision. I really enjoy reading the book and I am sure you definitely will as somehow those irrationalities mentioned in this book were hardwired into our DNA.
Predictably monotone October 25, 2008 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
The premise is interesting, but the writing style didn't capture my interest. A lot of repetition. Yielded some useful insight. Overall, worth reading, even in a cursory manner.
Why do we think that way???!!! October 23, 2008 This was an excellent read. It was entertaining and moved very fast. He provided a lot of information about how we thought and the ways we thought. If you are even remotely interested in how the human mind works, this is an excellent read. We are not the rational animals that we think we are and this book points out all of our lovable quirks.
Delightful October 20, 2008 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
This book does a wonderful job of exploring the irrational decisions that we make and then giving thoughtful explanations for why we make them!
