In this groundbreaking New York Times bestseller, Dan Ariely refutes the common assumption that we behave in fundamentally rational ways.

Yet these misguided behaviors are neither random nor senseless. They’re systematic and predictable—making us predictably irrational.

The full edition has dozens of cards, organized around big ideas, all delightfully arranged in a 3D, pick-you-own-path interface. It's perfect for exploring Kelly's themes in a way that matches your interests.
