Chip and Dan Heath, the bestselling authors of Switch and Made to Stick , tackle one of the most critical topics in our work and personal lives: how to make better decisions.
Research in psychology has revealed that our decisions are disrupted by an array of biases and irrationalities: We’re overconfident. We seek out information that supports us and downplay information that doesn’t. We get distracted by short-term emotions. When it comes to making choices, it seems, our brains are flawed instruments. Unfortunately, merely being aware of these shortcomings doesn’t fix the problem, any more than knowing that we are nearsighted helps us to see. The real question is: How can we do better?
In Decisive , the Heaths, based on an exhaustive study of the decision-making literature, introduce a four-step process designed to counteract these biases. Written in an engaging and compulsively readable style, Decisive takes readers on an unforgettable journey, from a rock star’s ingenious decision-making trick to a CEO’s disastrous acquisition, to a single question that can often resolve thorny personal decisions.
Along the way, we learn the answers to critical questions like these: How can we stop the cycle of agonizing over our decisions? How can we make group decisions without destructive politics? And how can we ensure that we don’t overlook precious opportunities to change our course?
Decisive is the Heath brothers’ most powerful—and important—book yet, offering fresh strategies and practical tools enabling us to make better choices. Because the right decision, at the right moment, can make all the difference.

评分今天跟朋友聊起读书的事。虽然多读几本少读几本区别不大,但是多读几百本区别就大了,尤其读的又是好书。好书一定要反复读,重新读,随着自己的成长感悟不一样的。 本书是希思兄弟的作品,之前我看的是《瞬变》不错,这本同样保持了很好的水平。他们的书我感觉是把相关经典读透...
评分 评分这本书对于丹尼尔为何获得诺贝尔经济学奖做出了更加具体的解释。 行为经济学是爱因斯坦的相对论,而教材上的经济学则是牛顿的经典力学。 不过,两者不同之处是,行为经济学更加容易理解,也更加能够指导个人生活。 比如,如何做出决策? 从正反面来论证。 比如,“我应该换工作...
很有启发。。。不过不太简洁
