Thought-provoking
User Review - dogsrock - BordersThis book gives a different view on how to shape behavior of large numbers of people - not with mandates, but nudges. The authors' case is interesting and thought-provoking. It's definitely a great read being very well-written and not too bogged down in details. Highly recommended! Read full review
