If you say yes to one or both these questions, you will find this book very interesting:
(1) Do you like reading about what drives our habitual behaviour?
(2) Do you believe in this saying “culture eats strategy for breakfast”?
Much
like the cover explains, this book aims for both explaining human
behaviour and taking a shot at self-help and improvement. It also seems
reliably applicable in personal and organisational situations (sections 1
and 2), but it seems a force-fit in the social context (section 3).
Rating: 3.5 stars of 5
High rating for the applicability for the framework, cutting a few points for the 3rd section.
