Questions

The short answers.

Is this just behavioural economics?
It draws on that tradition but pulls from cognitive psychology and philosophy too. The point isn't to catalogue biases — it's to give you the move that loosens each one's grip.
Will this help me make better decisions at work?
Yes — most of the biases in Volume II show up most loudly in professional decisions: hiring, planning, evaluating. The exercises are written to apply to either work or personal life.
Should I read Volume I first?
Not required. Volume II is self-contained. But many readers find Volume I changes how they read Volume II.
What format is the book in?
A high-quality designed PDF. Reads beautifully on screens and prints cleanly on any home or office printer at US Letter size.
How fast do I get it?
Instantly. The download link appears the moment your payment goes through, and a copy is also sent to your email.
What if it's not for me?
Email me within 30 days and you'll get a full refund. No forms, no friction.
