Behavioral economist and New York Times bestselling author of Predictably Irrational Dan Ariely returns to offer a much-needed take on the irrational decisions that influence our dating lives, our workplace experiences, and our general behaviour. In The Upside of Irrationality, Ariely explores how our behaviour often leads us astray in romantic relationships, workplace experiences, and temptations to cheat. Using everyday examples and groundbreaking research, he explains how expectations, emotions, social norms, and other invisible forces skew our reasoning. Topics include what truly makes us happy, why knowing more about people can make us like them less, how we fall in love with our ideas, and what motivates us to cheat. Ariely highlights the role of irrationality in everyday decision-making across all aspects of life.
