Predictably Irrational: The Hidden Forces That Shape Our Decisions

Honestly all the business books that talk about psychological research or behavioral economics talk about the same things. I haven't even read Thinking Fast and Slow by Daniel Kahneman but all these books literally rehash it again and again so I probably wouldn't even get anything out of reading it now. That said this one's much better written than most of the other books I've read and so if you haven't read anything else about behavioral economics or that way we make decisions this is a good choice. If you have read other books on those things though I'd skip this one because it doesn't add anything new.

I agree with you that a lot of these books say the same thing. I'm an economics major and have read too many of this kind of book. In fact, many of these books end up rehearsing the exact same studies Kahneman performed decades ago. This book I enjoyed for its humor, but it wasn't particularly revelatory.
