Why is there such a big difference between what we think will make us happy and what really makes us happy? In his groundbreaking book Predictably Irrational, social scientist Dan Ariely revealed the multiple biases that lead us into making unwise decisions. Now, in The Upside of Irrationality, he exposes the surprising negative and positive effects irrationality can have on our lives. Focusing on our behaviors at work and in relationships, he offers new insights about how one unwise action can become a long-term habit, how we learn to love the ones we`re with, and more. From our office attitudes, to our romantic relationships, to our search for purpose in life, Ariely explains how to break through our negative patterns of thought and behavior to make better decisions.--From publisher description. 0 text unmediated volume lcc BK jderpo 2021-01-26 09:44:11 jderpo 2021-01-26 10:00:58 11642 11539 11539 0 0 ddc 0 0 BED BED BED 2025-12-21 CIR 153.4 A69u 2011 HS1663 2026-06-18 00:00:00 2025-12-21 BK
