About this listen

Since the original publication of Nudge more than a decade ago, the title has entered the vocabulary of businesspeople, policy makers, engaged citizens, and consumers everywhere. The book has given rise to more than 200 "nudge units" in governments around the world and countless groups of behavioral scientists in every part of the economy. It has taught us how to use thoughtful "choice architecture" - a concept the authors invented - to help us make better decisions for ourselves, our families, and our society.

Now, the authors have rewritten the book from cover to cover, making use of their experiences in and out of government over the past dozen years as well as an explosion of new research in numerous academic disciplines. To commit themselves to never undertaking this daunting task again, they are calling this the "final edition". It offers a wealth of new insights, for both its avowed fans and newcomers to the field, about a wide variety of issues that we face in our daily lives - COVID-19, health, personal finance, retirement savings, credit card debt, home mortgages, medical care, organ donation, climate change, and "sludge" (paperwork and other nuisances we don't want and that keep us from getting what we do want) - all while honoring one of the cardinal rules of nudging: make it fun!

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Excellent Book

Both the content of the book and the excellent narration make this audiobook a pleasure to listen to. Occasionally the examples used or the particular subject may not be relevant, however as a finance professional I found it an excellent foundational text for both behavioural economics and choice architecture.

The narration was an excellent interpretation of subtle humour, conveyed lightly and augmenting rather than detracting from the content.

Masterpiece

The kind of books that influence much of that comes afterwards. Cutting through ideology to highlight where pure capitalism falls short, and requires a dose of balance when it comes to wealth distribution and behavioural economics.

interesting philosophy

I like the idea of this philosophy and would have loved to hear more about everyday examples that affect everyone.
I feel that the examples and stories in the book were narrowly focused on American culture and therefore did not apply to me causing me to lose interest.
