Rated Predictably Irrational: The Hidden Forces That Shape Our Decisions 8/10

This book turned to be very influential as I've read probably about half of the described studies cited somewhere else. Quite liked how each chapter starts with a question, continues on with an experiment and concludes with surprising (although the author claims – predictable) results. Especially liked how the author kept the book optimistic and pragmatic by offering practical advice for how to compensate or benefit from our irrationality.<br/><br/>I only wish the experiments were described in less detail to make the book shorter.
