The Paradox of Choice: Why More Is Less
by Barry Schwartz
Buy on AmazonI find it clear in its exposition of the problems of modern psychology. In addition to the ideas of ‘satisficing,’ it displays the major ideas in the psychology of happiness (hedonic treadmill), along with the theories of choice & decision making. Clearly this is not for scholars as it is extremely diluted and slow at times; this is a popular science book. Still, I could not put it down.
