Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion

Psychological studies like a Malcolm Gladwell style. It's taken me a long time to get through it.
Unfortunately a bunch of the topics mentioned I've learned from taking Psychology in University.
It had interesting information but I feel it really drags on each topic.
Clothiers know to sell the most expensive item first because the accessories are cheaper in comparison and they're more likely to buy them as well. Instead of buy cheap, then expensive.
When you ask for a favour don't just say can I print out these copies and jump in line? instead use the magic word "because, because I'm in a rush. It's effective just using the word because. Even if you say because I need to print these people would still allow you to jump the line.
