Dan Ariely is the James B. Duke Professor of Behavioral Economics at Duke University. He also holds an appointment at the MIT Media Lab where he is the head of the eRationality research group. He was formerly the Alfred P. Sloan Professor of Behavioral Economics at MIT Sloan School of Management.
Dan Ariely grew up in Israel after birth in New York. He served in the Israeli army and when 18 suffered third-degree burns over 70 percent of his body from an accidental magnesium flare explosion during training.
Ariely recovered and went on to graduate from Tel Aviv University and received a Ph.D. and M.A. in cognitive psychology from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and a Ph.D. in business from Duke University. His research focuses on discovering and measuring how people make decisions. He models the human decision making process and in particular the irrational decisions that we all make every day.
Ariely is the author of the book, Predictably Irrational: The Hidden Forces That Shape Our Decisions, which was published on February 19, 2008 by HarperCollins. When asked whether reading Predictably Irrational and understanding one's irrational behaviors could make a person's life worse (such as by defeating the benefits of a placebo), Ariely responded that there could be a short term cost, but that there would also likely be longterm benefits, and that reading his book would not make a person worse off.
The New York Times bestselling author of Predictably Irrational and The Upside of Irrationality returns with thought-provoking work to challenge our preconceptions about dishonesty and urge us to take an honest look at ourselves.
Does the chance of getting caught affect how likely we are to cheat?
How do companies pave the way for dishonesty?
Does collaboration make us more honest or less so?
Does religion improve our honesty?
Most of us think of ourselves as honest, but, in fact, we all cheat. From Washington to Wall Street, the classroom to the workplace, unethical behavior is everywhere. None of us is immune, whether it's the white lie to head off trouble or padding our expense reports. In The (Honest) Truth About Dishonesty, award-winning, bestselling author Dan Ariely turns his unique insight and innovative research to the question of dishonesty.
Generally, we assume that cheating, like most other decisions, is based on a rational cost-benefit analysis. But Ariely argues, and then demonstrates, that it's actually the irrational forces that we don't take into account that often determine whether we behave ethically or not. For every Enron or political bribe, there are countless puffed rÉsumÉs, hidden commissions, and knockoff purses. In The (Honest) Truth About Dishonesty, Ariely shows why some things are easier to lie about; how getting caught matters less than we think; and how business practices pave the way for unethical behavior, both intentionally and unintentionally. Ariely explores how unethical behavior works in the personal, professional, and political worlds, and how it affects all of us, even as we think of ourselves as having high moral standards.
But all is not lost. Ariely also identifies what keeps us honest, pointing the way for achieving higher ethics in our everyday lives. With compelling personal and academic findings, The (Honest) Truth About Dishonesty will change the way we see ourselves, our actions, and others.
The Honest Truth About Dishonesty 2012-7-19 思考: 1. 是否可以给名牌的附加价值再加上一项:阻止道德滑坡? 2. 按照“勿以恶小而为之”,从网上下载免费的电子书,窃取了作者的劳动成果,是否会让人变得不诚实呢?即使初衷是好的:读书。 第一章 基于实验的三个结论...
評分书里面讲的道理还是有意思, 但就是整本书像一本实验报告合集,一直在讲各种实验室里面的测试。 而且像这种说明道理的书,我自己是更期待有一个实际生活中的例子,有故事情节的。而这本书大部分都是实验室里找10个人做一个小测验那种,实际生活中的情节较少。个人不太喜欢这种...
評分《不诚实的诚实真相》是丹·艾瑞里的新作,之前很是期待,一是对他的书一直很喜欢,二是有老师推荐过这本书。本书主要介绍了一些会让作弊和说谎增加的小事,以及我们如何在一定程度上减少不诚实事件的发生。本书秉持了作者的一贯风格,用众多实例来做说明。但行为经济学是和心...

與之前兩本相比,新鮮的東西真的不多。不過半年三本讀下來加上網上的追蹤,也算對作者和這個領域多少有些認知。更懂得自己和彆人多一些,更坦然的麵對生活,應該能讓自己活的更輕鬆快樂。想想“瞭不起的蓋茨比”中的一句話,“『不誠實』在女人身上永遠也不是一個嚴肅的問題。”
评分超有趣~格式上,簡直就是一篇學術論文的白話版,學者怎麼做實驗,怎麼控製變量,設置對照組,得齣什麼結論,什麼limitations,一篇學術論文應該有的這本書都涵蓋瞭。內容上,用一次次行為實驗探討瞭人為什麼cheat,什麼情況下cheat得少一些,還有由此衍生的其他話題。
评分coursera有他的課。當因為報遲瞭,又有很多課業,就把這個放掉瞭,但是其實真的非常好非常好。
评分恐怕是最後一本Ariely瞭。還是很多有趣的小故事和科學試驗,但不斷說一個試驗和開始重復一些耳熟能詳的試驗說明Ariely有些江郎纔盡瞭吧
评分總算看完瞭
