À propos de cet audio

 Every day, we make decisions on topics ranging from personal investments to schools for our children to the meals we eat to the causes we champion. Unfortunately, we often choose poorly. The reason, the authors explain, is that, being human, we are all susceptible to various biases that can lead us to blunder.

Our mistakes make us poorer and less healthy; we often make bad decisions involving education, personal finance, health care, mortgages and credit cards, the family, and even the planet itself.

Thaler and Sunstein invite us to enter an alternative world, one that takes our humanness as a given. They show that by knowing how people think, we can design choice environments that make it easier for people to choose what is best for themselves, their families, and their society.

Using colorful examples from the most important aspects of life, Thaler and Sunstein demonstrate how thoughtful "choice architecture" can be established to nudge us in beneficial directions without restricting freedom of choice. Nudge offers a unique new take - from neither the left nor the right - on many hot-button issues, for individuals and governments alike. This is one of the most engaging and provocative audiobooks to come along in many years.

Included in this recording are a bonus chapter and a Postscript that was added in the paperback edition.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your My Library section along with the audio.

I have found this book to have a lot of practical insights, and was delivered impeccably. It was read at just the right pace to be absorbable.

One of the best Social Psych books of recent years

A great study of human behaviour—both the sensible and the not so much—everyone should read this book!

Incredibly thought provoking

I couldn’t listen to this book alone without having the physical in hand. So parts require you to read and reread sections. Overall, great book with many helpful tips that can benefit individuals, and private and public sector.

Need the hard book

The premise is interesting, the range of subjects is satisfying, and the wit of the authors comes through. Nudge is an easy listen, but also quite stimulating. it has me thinking about all the ways my own behaviour is directed by "choice architecture", and how I may be unknowingly influencing people's choices myself. If you're on a "books by economists" kick like I am then this will be a good listen.

Fascinating and informative!

Nothing groundbreaking but very interesting to hear the application of social, psychological and economic research to everyday issues.

Worthwhile listen

I read this book after Thaler's other book, "misbehaving", and also other well known books in area of behavioral economics such as "predictably irrational", "thinking, fast and slow", and to some extent "freakonomics" serie. What I found is frequent repetition of concepts, inter-referencing, and even exact same examples and researches. So you'll enjoy the first book you pick very much, and will find the later books less and less fresh.

Not fresh if you're already into behavioral econ.

The book is interesting though inadequately explicative of the actual science. The narration is disappointing.

Interesting book, poor narration

The book is of course well-written and the first few chapters were excellent. I guess I didn't know, however, that the examples would mostly about financial tools -- with other little rants about gay marriage scattered throughout. Overall, it read more of a political manifesto from the 2000's then anything I would be interested in. That said, I think the author's really do hope that libertarian paternalism could be a bridge for America's two party system. Unfortunately, it's hard to see how this might ever be possible given the state of current affairs.

First few chapters are really great.

This book is pretty much just the authors explaining how they feel the US government should change policies and laws. Has very little around human behaviour and anything they briefly talk about before starting the next rant is covered in other books such as “think fast and slow”. Would not recommend this book, especially if you do not live in the US.

Full of Rants
