Publisher Description

What motivates us into doing or not doing things? Why what we predict may sometimes be different from what happens in actuality? 

Traditional economics claims humans are rational actors. But is this true? Think about the last time you bought something expensive. Was that item really the best choice based on value and utility? We all fall prey to irrationality and biases and make decisions based on them. This contradicts the wisdom of traditional economics.

Outsmart Your Brain challenges everyday wisdom with the help of psychology and economics, commonly known as behavioral economics. Here, you’ll find offers counter-intuitive answer to emotion-driven questions.  

This book is for those who don’t fear reality, have an inquisitive nature, enjoy challenges, like to know the real motivations of human nature, and like to outsmart their brains intentionally!
