Great time filler and if you have a short attention span, it makes a good read because you’re not missing anything. Having read how to rob a bank and other social science books before, I expected a lot more but it falls right in the middle. Neither great nor bad.

Advice you can't use,
Some interesting pop psy,
Cartoons were best part.

Not a ground breaking piece but much easier to read , sit it down after you finish it for a couple of weeks and flip to a random page, you retain the concepts much better this way when the domain of the problems are tied to the academic concept

What a great book.
One of my FAVORITE BOOK GENRES is when people write in, and ask questions to the author (think What If by Randall Munroe or Will My Cat Eat My Eyeballs by Caitlin or whoever). SO GOOD.
Fun answers and very informative at the same time.
One issue of this book (why it's getting 4 and not 5 stars) is because Dan kinda "yucked-it-up" on some of his answers and went for the joke answer instead of a real answer - and honestly, it was the questions where I WANTED an honest answer when he did this! That aside, it was great!
So many different topics covered.
If you're into behavioural economics like me, definitely pick it up!
4.1/5

In-depth review soon
Cute read but not my fav! Just all his work from his advice column, "Ask Ariely", with Wall Street Journal. Good book if you want to laugh!

At least my extraocular muscles got some exercise thanks to the intense eye-rolling this "book" imposed on me with every single one of its pages.

Witty, downright hilarious at times, and quite informative. This is what great popular science writing is all about. This isn't just about what we think, but how we go about doing so. And we are not the rational agents we tell ourselves we are, but that's not all bad.
