ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK
In this work, the author, Dan Ariely, addresses, with technical solvency and a simple and pleasant style, the issue of daily decisions that people make in their lives. His studies on human behaviour have enabled him to reach surprising conclusions, which for the most part relate to the economy, and which have sparked the interest of business people as well as average citizens for the way in which they show the factors that move impulses in human beings, which are not always logical or rational and often lead to mistakes.
This book not only is enjoyable to read but it is also a call for reflection to promote better decisions in our personal and professional lives stemming from an understanding of how the World works.

ABOUT MENTORS LIBRARY
Books are mentors. Books can guide what we do and our lives. Many of us love books while reading them and maybe they will echo with us a few weeks after but 2 years later we cant remember if we have read it or not. And thats a shame. We remember that at that time, the book meant a lot to us.
Why is it that 2 years later we have forgotten everything? Thats not good.
This summary is taken from the most important themes of the original book.
