📖 Predictably Irrational: The Hidden Forces That Shape Our Decisions
✍️ By Dan Ariely

Why do we make irrational decisions, even when we know better? In "Predictably Irrational," celebrated behavioral economist Dan Ariely takes readers on a fascinating journey into the hidden forces that shape our choices and actions. Through a series of insightful experiments and real-world examples, Ariely exposes the underlying biases, emotions, and motivations that lead us to make decisions that are often far from logical.

🌟 The Premise
Drawing from years of research in behavioral economics, Ariely explores the quirks of human behavior, showing how we consistently and predictably make irrational decisions—from pricing products and managing personal finances to relationships and work. He reveals how our cognitive biases, emotional triggers, and social influences lead to decisions that defy conventional logic.
