How can large bonuses sometimes make CEOs less
productive? Why is revenge so important to us? How can
confusing directions actually help us? Why is there a
difference between what we think will make us happy
and what really makes us happy? In his
groundbreaking book, Predictably Irrational, social
scientist Dan Ariely revealed the multiple biases that lead
us to make unwise decisions. Now, in The Upside of
Irrationality, he exposes the surprising negative and
positive effects irrationality can have on our lives.
Focusing on our behaviors at work and in relationships, he
offers new insights and eye-opening truths about what really
motivates us on the job, how one unwise action can become a
long-term bad habit, how we learn to love the ones we’re
with, and more. The Upside of Irrationality will
change the way we see ourselves at work and at home—and cast
our irrational behaviors in a more nuanced light.
