the upside of irrationality dan ariely

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, up close and personal. In The Upside of Irrationality, behavioral economist Dan Ariely will explore the many ways in which our behaviour often leads us astray in terms of our romantic relationships, our experiences in the workplace, and our temptations to cheat. Blending everyday experience with groundbreaking research, Ariely explains how expectations, emotions, social norms and other invisible, seemingly illogical forces skew our reasoning abilities. Among the topics Dan explores are:* What we think will make us happy and what really makes us happy;* How we learn to love the ones we are with;* Why online dating doesn't work, and how we can improve on it;* Why learning more about people make us like them less;* Why large bonuses can make CEOs less productive;* How to really motivate people at work;* Why bad directions can help us;* How we fall in love with our ideas;* How we are motivated by revenge; and* What motivates us to cheat.

At the age of thirteen, Danny Sugerman- the already wayward product of Beverley Hills wealth and privilege- went to his first Doors concert. He never looked back. He became Jim Morrison''s protégé and- still in his teens- manager of the Doors and then Iggy Pop. He also plunged gleefully into the glamorous underworld of the rock ''n'' roll scene, diving headfirst into booze, sex and drugs: every conceivable kind of drug, ever day, in every possible permutation. By the age of twenty-one he had an idyllic home, a beautiful girlfriend, the best car in the world, two kinds of hepatitis, a diseased heart, a $500 a day heroin habit and only a week to live. He lived.This is his tale. Excessive, scandalous, comic, cautionary and horrifying, it chronicles the 60s dream gone to rot and the early life of a Hollywood Wild Child who was just brilliant at being bad.

Fascinating and provocative, Ariely’s The Truth About Dishonesty is an insightful and brilliantly researched take on cheating, deception and willpower. Internationally bestselling author Ariely pulls no punches when it comes to home truths.Previous titles PREDICTABLY IRRATIONAL and THE UPSIDE OF IRRATIONALITY have becomes classics in their field, revealing unexpected and astonishing traits that run through modern humankind. Now acclaimed behavioural economist Dan Ariely delves deeper into the dark and murky recesses of contemporary psychology, daring to ask the big questions:What makes us cheat? How and why do we rationalise deception of ourselves and other people, and make ourselves ‘wishfully blind’ to the blindingly obvious? What affects our infuriatingly intangible willpower and how can we ‘catch’ the cheating bug from other bad apples?If you’ve ever wondered how a whole company can turn a blind eye to evident misdemeanours within their ranks, whether people are born dishonest and whether you can really be successful by being totally, brutally honest, then Dan has the answers, and many more.

Why do smart people make irrational decisions every day? The answers will surprise you. Predictably Irrational is an intriguing, witty and utterly original look at why we all make illogical decisions.Why can a 50p aspirin do what a 5p aspirin can''t?

How do our expectations influence our actual opinions and decisions?In this astounding book, behavioural economist Dan Ariely cuts to the heart of our strange behaviour, demonstrating how irrationality often supplants rational thought and that the reason for this is embedded in the very structure of our minds.Predicatably Irrational brilliantly blends everyday experiences with a series of illuminating and often surprising experiments, that will change your understanding of human behaviour.

Renomovaný sociológ, profesor a autor bestsellerov Dan Ariely prináša svoju doteraz najnaliehavejšiu knihu – strhujúci pohľad na ľudský rozmer krízy dezinformácií –, v ktorej skúma, prečo si inak racionálni ľudia osvojujú hlboko iracionálne presvedčenia. Dezinformácie nás denne zasahujú od sociálnych sietí po najbližšie vzťahy a riešenia často skresľuje straníckosť a subjektívne „pravdy“.V knihe Prečo sa mýlime Ariely tvrdí, že pochopiť príťažlivosť dezinformácií znamená pochopiť psychologickú a sociálnu cestu k mylnému presvedčeniu: k nedôvere voči všeobecne prijímaným faktom, k „alternatívnym pravdám“ a napokon ku konšpiráciám. Dezinformácie oslovujú vrodené sklony naprieč celým politickým spektrom. Na základe rokov výskumu aj osobnej skúsenosti autor analyzuje emocionálne, kognitívne, osobnostné a sociálne faktory, ktoré ženú ľudí dolu pomyselným lievikom mylných presvedčení, a ukazuje, že za určitých okolností sa to môže stať komukoľvek. Autor však ponúka aj nádej. Hoci umelá inteligencia dokáže vo veľkom generovať presvedčivé klamstvá, poznanie síl, ktoré živia mylné presvedčenia, zvyšuje odolnosť jednotlivcov i spoločnosti. Boj s nimi si žiada stratégiu založenú skôr na empatii než na konflikte. Keď pochopíme, že ide predovšetkým o ľudský problém, môžeme sa stať súčasťou riešenia.

Proč je tak jednoduché na dovolené zaplatit za totožný produkt několikanásobné částky, než které bychom za něj byli ochotni dát doma Peníze vnímáme jako čísla, uvažujeme o jejich hodnotě a množství, ale když v reálném životě peníze utrácíme, ve hře je víc emocí než racionálního přemýšlení. Jinými slovy, emoce hrají velkou roli při formování našeho způsobu, jak s penězi nakládáme. Když se třeba pokoušíme ušetřit, stanovit cenu věcí nebo když chceme zodpovědně utrácet, děláme ve výsledku špatná rozhodnutí. Kniha obsahuje širokou škálu témat z každodenního života - od pasti "bezbolestného" placení pomocí kreditních karet, přes skrytá nebezpečí řízení domácího rozpočtu až po svůdnou nástrahu, kterou představuje nevázané utrácení během dovolené. Behaviorální ekonom Dan Ariely se při vzniku knihy Peníze a zdravý selský rozum spojil se spisovatelem Jeffem Kreislerem, aby společně zpochybnili naše základní představy týkající se ošidných vztahů mezi lidským mozkem a penězi. Ve své knize s humorem boří mnohé všeobecně rozšířené názory z oblasti nakládání s penězi a ukazují nám, jak překonat instinkty, které nás strhávají špatným směrem při rozhodování ve finančních záležitostech.

''Captivating and deeply moving.'' Richard Coles''Evocative, beautifully written . . . conjures locations and feelings almost magically.'' Jeremy Vine''My brain has made the decision . . . I am going to love this book.'' Richard Hawley There was a time when he felt like the undisputed King of Selston.Then again, there were several years when he was convinced that he could talk to animals and had even mastered the power of flight - sailing nightly over the headstocks, slag heaps and doggedly beautiful countryside of an isolated East Midlands mining village.But, deep down, Danny Scott knew that the real King of Selston was and always would be coal. Over the last seven hundred years, coal dust had settled on every inch of Selston. It was in the food he ate, the air he breathed and the words he spoke. It fashioned resilient men like his dad and The Texan; feisty women like his mother, whose right-hook was feared even more than her fondness for house fires.Danny was a clever bugger - dangerously clever, some said - and fiercely proud of Selston, his dad and his mining heritage. Five generations of his family had spent their working lives underground, providing fuel ... Unknown localization key: "more"

The dog issues the tailor with a warning: he must go to a priest and ask for absolution and return to the road, or else there will be consequences...First recorded in the early fifteenth century by an unknown monk, The Tale of the Tailor and the Three Dead Kings was transcribed from the Latin by the great medievalist M.R. James in 1922. Building on that tradition, now bestselling historian Dan Jones retells this medieval ghost story in crisp and creepy prose.

In what we tell ourselves is an age of reason, we are behaving increasingly irrationally. An astonishing number of people subscribe to celebrity endorsed cults, Mayan armageddon prophecies, scientism, and other varieties of new age, anti-enlightenment philosophies. Millions more advance popular conspiracy theories: AIDS was created in a CIA laboratory, Princess Diana was assassinated, and the 9/11 attacks were an inside job.In The World Turned Upside Down, Melanie Phillips explains that the basic cause of this explosion of irrationality is the slow but steady marginalization of religion. We tell ourselves that faith and reason are incompatible, but the opposite is the case. It was Christianity and the Hebrew Bible, Phillips asserts, that gave us our concepts of reason, progress, and an orderly world on which science and modernity are based.Without its religious traditions, the West has drifted into mass derangement where truth and lies, right and wrong, victim and aggressor are all turned upside down. Scientists skeptical of global warming are hounded from their posts, Israel is demonized, and the US is vilified over the war on terror—all on the basis of blatant falsehoods and obscene propaganda.Worst of all, asserts Phillips, this abandonment of rationality leaves the West vulnerable to ...

Arundhathi Subramaniam’s poems map a wobbling world, trying to find its axis in a season of change. Fabrics tear, lands splinter, stances harden, loved ones die, names dissolve. But wandering through these pages are some extraordinary women – women who vault nimbly over borders, walk naked, walk aslant, and sometimes upside down.

Moving beyond the process of changeWhy is change so hard? Because in order to make any transformation successful, you must change more than just the structure and operations of an organization—you need to change people’s behavior. And that is never easy.The Heart of Change is your guide to helping people think and feel differently in order to meet your shared goals. According to bestselling author and renowned leadership expert John Kotter and coauthor Dan Cohen, this focus on connecting with people’s emotions is what will spark the behavior change and actions that lead to success. Now freshly designed, The Heart of Change is the engaging and essential complement to Kotter’s worldwide bestseller Leading Change.Building off of Kotter’s revolutionary eight-step process, this book vividly illustrates how large-scale change can work. With real-life stories of people in organizations, the authors show how teams and individuals get motivated and activated to overcome obstacles to change—and produce spectacular results. Kotter and Cohen argue that change initiatives often fail because leaders rely too exclusively on data and analysis to get buy-in from their teams instead of creatively showing or doing something that appeals to their emotions and inspires them to spring into action.
