Written by Duke University professor and three-time New York Times bestselling author Dan Ariely, both books use witty, real-world experiments to show why humans consistently act irrationally, cheat, and make choices that defy classic economic logic — ideal for fans of popular psychology, self-help, and business non-fiction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Books\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nPredictably Irrational was Ariely's ground-breaking debut, asking why intelligent people so often make illogical decisions in everyday life — from overpaying for coffee to choosing the wrong romantic partner. Through a series of clever, real-world experiments, Ariely shows that our mistakes are not random but systematic and predictable, uncovering the hidden forces of pricing, expectation, and social norms that quietly steer our choices. The book became a global bestseller for its playful, accessible take on serious behavioural science.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAriely followed this with The (Honest) Truth About Dishonesty, turning his attention from irrational spending to irrational ethics. Drawing on ingenious experiments conducted in classrooms, offices, and even his own life, Ariely investigates why ordinary, otherwise honest people cheat a little — and what allows businesses and individuals alike to rationalise dishonest behaviour. He explores what makes cheating \"contagious,\" why getting caught matters less than we assume, and how small changes to our environment can nudge us toward greater honesty. Together, the two titles make an ideal introduction — or gift — for anyone curious about the psychology behind everyday decisions, dishonesty, and the strange, predictable ways our minds really work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo brand-new paperback bestsellers by a globally recognised behavioural economist\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccessible, witty writing packed with real experiments and relatable examples\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePerfect gift set for fans of popular psychology, self-help and business books\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExplores decision-making, dishonesty, pricing psychology and willpower\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGreat value bundle compared with buying each title individually\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nDan Ariely is the James B.

Drawing on years of behavioural economics research, Ariely reveals the surprising psychology behind small deceptions, self-justification and the fudge factor that lets us cheat just enough to feel we're still honest. Witty, rigorous and endlessly readable, this paperback follows Predictably Irrational and The Upside of Irrationality as another essential entry in Ariely's exploration of why we behave the way we do.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Book\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nWhy do we lie? Not just the big, headline-grabbing frauds, but the small, everyday deceptions: fudging an expense report, exaggerating a story, downloading music we haven't paid for. In The (Honest) Truth About Dishonesty, behavioural economist Dan Ariely sets out to understand exactly how and why we cheat, using a series of ingenious experiments conducted with students, executives, and everyday people across the world. What he finds overturns the conventional wisdom that dishonesty is a simple cost-benefit calculation weighing potential gain against the risk of getting caught. Instead, Ariely shows that most of us cheat just a little, just enough to profit while still being able to view ourselves as fundamentally honest people. He calls this the \"fudge factor\" — the psychological wiggle room we allow ourselves before we start to feel guilty. Along the way, Ariely examines the surprising factors that increase or decrease dishonesty: creativity, fatigue, conflicts of interest, the presence of a single \"bad apple\" in a group, and even how wearing counterfeit goods can make us more likely to lie. Blending sharp science with Ariely's characteristic warmth and humour, this is a book that will change how you view your own behaviour — and everyone else's, from politicians and bankers to friends and family.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWritten by internationally bestselling behavioural economist Dan Ariely\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBased on original, peer-reviewed research and real-world experiments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExplores the psychology of cheating, self-deception and moral rationalisation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccessible, witty writing style that makes complex ideas easy to grasp\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA thought-provoking gift for readers who enjoyed Predictably Irrational\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand new paperback copy with fast, free UK delivery\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nDan Ariely is a Professor of Psychology and Behavioral Economics at Duke University, where he also founded the Center for Advanced Hindsight.
