How We Decide by Jonah Lehrer

4.0

A very interesting explanation of how our brains work in the decision-making process. No, it isn't instinct. And no, it isn't executive function. At least, it isn't an either-or proposition. Instead, it's a carefully balanced combination of both. Like good parents, they work together, providing a good mixture of responsibility and indulgence.

I learned a lot, and the book was engagingly written. I'd definitely recommend it to anyone interested in this kind of thing.
