Now available: Nudge: The Final EditionThe original edition of the multimillion-copy New York Times bestseller by the winner of the Nobel Prize in Economics, Richard H. Thaler, and Cass R. Sunstein: a revelatory look at how we make decisions for fans of Malcolm Gladwell s Blink, Charles Duhigg s The Power of Habit, James Clear s Atomic Habits, and Daniel Kahneman s Thinking, Fast and Slow
Named a Best Book of the Year by The Economist and the Financial Times
Every day we make choices about what to buy or eat, about financial investments or our children s health and education, even about the causes we champion or the planet itself. Unfortunately, we often choose poorly. Nudge is about how we make these choices and how we can make better ones. Using dozens of eye-opening examples and drawing on decades of behavioral science research, Nobel Prize winner Richard H. Thaler and Harvard Law School professor Cass R. Sunstein show that no choice is ever presented to us in a neutral way, and that we are all susceptible to biases that can lead us to make bad decisions. But by knowing how people think, we can use sensible choice architecture to nudge people toward the best decisions for ourselves, our families, and our society, without restricting our freedom of choice.

Common "Nudges"- The design of menus gets you to eat (and spend) more. For example, lining up all prices on either side of the menu leads many consumers to simply pick the cheapest item. On the other hand, discretely listing prices at the end of food descriptions lets people read about the appetizing options first ; and then see prices.
- "Flies" in urinals improve, well, aim. When Amsterdam's Schiphol Airport was faced with the not uncommon issue of dirty urinals, they chose a unique solution: by painting "flies" in the (center of) commodes, men obligingly aimed at the insects, reducing spillage by 80 percent.
- Credit card minimum payments affect repayment schedules. Among those who only partially pay off credit card balances each month, the repayment level is correlated with the card's minimum payment in other words, the lower the minimum payment, the longer it takes a consumer to pay off the card balance.
- Automatic savings programs increase savings rate. All over the country, companies are adopting the Save More Tomorrow program: firms offer employees who are not saving very much the option of joining a program in which their saving rates are automatically increased whenever they get a raise. This plan has more than tripled saving rates in some firms, and is now offered by thousands of employers.
- "Defaults" can improve rates of organ donation. In the United States, about one third of citizens have signed organ donor cards. Compare this to Austria, where 99 percent of people are potential organ donors. One obvious difference? Americans must explicitly consent to become organ donors (by signing forms, for example) while Austrians must opt out if they do not want to be organ donors.

Pressezitat
One of The Strategist s 13 Best Personal Finance Books, According to Money Experts One of the few books . . . that fundamentally changed the way I think about the world. Steven D. Levitt, coauthor of Freakonomics
Engaging and insightful . . . The conceptual argument is powerful, and most of the authors suggestions are common sense at its best. . . . For that we should all applaud loudly. The New York Times Book Review

This book is terrific. It will change the way you think, not only about the world around you and some of its bigger problems, but also about yourself. Michael Lewis, author of Moneyball and Liar s Poker
This gem of a book . . . is a must-read for anyone who wants to see both our minds and our society working better. It will improve your decisions and it will make the world a better place. Daniel Kahneman, Nobel Prize winning author of Thinking, Fast and Slow
Utterly brilliant . . . Nudge won t nudge you it will knock you off your feet. Daniel Gilbert, author of Stumbling on Happiness
Nudge is as important a book as any I ve read in perhaps twenty years. It is a book that people interested in any aspect of public policy should read. It is a book that people interested in politics should read. It is a book that people interested in ideas about human freedom should read. It is a book that people interested in promoting human welfare should read. If you re not interested in any of these topics, you can read something else. Barry Schwartz, The American Prospect
Engaging, informative, and thoroughly delightful.
