How We Decide by Jonah LehrerMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
A very interesting insight into how our brains help us (or force us) to make decisions. Despite all the jargon (amygdala, dopamine receptors, etc.) it didn't feel too technical, and was well illustrated with real world anecdotes. Unfortunately, 90% of the stories seemed very familiar, like they'd all been used before by Malcolm Gladwell or the Freakonomics: A Rogue Economist Explores the Hidden Side of Everything guys.

So does all the propaganda around us influence our decisions as much as the big companies would like?
