I can’t tell you how happy this makes me.
Irrationally yours

My latest book, The Upside of Irrationality, explores some positive and some negative ways that irrationality plays out in our lives.
Congratulations! Woo-hoo!
Don’t sell the movie rights cheap: I can just see Hollywood taking the concept and turning it into a spy movie with lots of boobs and car crashes.
That’s awesome! (…if not predictable)
I second the woo-hoo! Count me in on the fan club.
But do you think it’s rational

Congratulations! I am so proud of you.

Is it random? (See: The Drunkard’s Walk, by Leonard Mlodinow)
wonderful.
the publisher must use this info to publicize the book.
Very well deserved. I’m a huge fan and have recommended your book to many. This book has had a profound impact on my work in branding and even in trying to understand my relationship with my in laws. More please.
Felicidades Dan, espero ya que pronto nos permitas leer tu siguiente libro.
“Así que hay FIESTA”
Dan, I used your book in our School of Business book discussion group “Pizza and a Book. The students enjoyed the book and had a great time with some of the topics. We also used your You Tube spots as ice breakers and as a way to bring you into the discussion. By the way we also bought 25 copies of the book.
This was a truly interesting book, certainly not just in Business and Investing.
The chapters on the reluctance to close doors, and the part about honesty, and most people cheating “just a little” were fascinating.
Topiary wondering whether reminding the Wall Street executives of the Ten Commandments would have worked at all…
Moo!
Loved the book and your website. I am giving the book to lots of people for holiday gifts.
Congratulations! It is an amazing book. Frankly, it is life-changing. Thank you so much.
Hello, the book was interesting; I wonder if our honesty is related to J. P. Keenan’s input on it in his book “The Face in the Mirror”? Please take your experiments further by finding impetus for the less honest in their upbringing. Thank you
I have been enjoying listing to PI as an audiobook. It is thought-provoking and well done!
This question popped to mind about imprinting and the students who took less money to listen to annoying noises: Could the students have stuck with their lower base prices because they felt that they were “winning” more opportunities to listen or make money? Did they know that they had been more “successful” then their higher-bidding peers?
Thanks and congrats on the Amazon ranking.
So glad the book is doing well. It deserves it!
I would like to know where did you get this?
Kudos! What a neat way of thkinnig about it.
