Governments everywhere are undergoing a quiet and profound transformation. For four years, Cass Sunstein, as President Obama’s “Regulatory Czar,” oversaw efforts to create better government. In “a remarkably fun, engaging read” (Fortune.com), he explains how, why, and what should come next.

Drawing on behavioral psychology and economics, Sunstein’s work helped save over $91 billion and countless lives through the power of nudges—policies that preserve freedom of choice and improve lives. In Simpler, Sunstein discusses his experiences in the Obama Administration, emphasizing the importance of better, not bigger or smaller, government.

The book offers a lucid, engaging look at behavioral economics and the role of the state in guiding humans towards rationality and responsibility. It presents a compelling vision of efficient, humane, technocratic government and may be one of the most important books from President Obama’s first term.
