"A book for the ages." -Rory Sutherland, Author, Alchemy

What is it about Amazon that pulls us back again and again? How does a two-minute wait make Guinness taste better? Why do we pay more for water than we know it's worth? The answers are here.

And it's not just theory. Hacking the Human Mind is a practical guide, filled with techniques for you to try today. So you too can make your brand the one people reach for - without them ever really knowing why.
