Critics Review

  • Dobelli pinpoints exactly the assumptions, bias and illusions that shape our thinking and decision-making processes in both business and personal relationships that can cost us dearly as individuals and as a society

    Financial Times
  • A serious examination of the faulty reasoning that leads to repeated mistakes by individuals, businesses, and nations . . . In this fascinating book, Dobelli does not offer a recipe for happiness but a well-considered treatise on avoiding ‘self-induced unhappiness’

    Booklist, starred review
  • Do you have to read this book? Definitely. It’s extremely entertaining and offers a fundamentally sound introduction to the nature of human thought

    Professor Dr (h.c.) Roland Berger, Founder and Honorary Chairman of Roland Berger Strategy Consultants
  • Three pages in, and you’ve already learned something else

    Franz Himpsel, Süddeutsche Zeitung
  • Rolf Dobelli is endowed with both imagination and realism, a combination hard to find since the 16th-century Renaissance

    Nicholas Nassim Taleb, author of BLACK SWAN
