Description:
The hugely anticipated first book from the TED Talks star and advertising legend
'A breakthrough book. Wonderfully applicable to everything in life, and funny as hell.' Nassim Nicholas Taleb
Why is Red Bull so popular - even though everyone hates the taste? Why do countdown boards on platforms take away the pain of train delays? And why do we prefer stripy toothpaste?
Discover the alchemy behind original thinking, as TED Talk superstar and Ogilvy advertising legend Rory Sutherland reveals why abandoning logic and casting aside rationality is the best way to solve any problem.
In his first book he blends cutting-edge behavioural science, jaw-dropping stories and a touch of branding magic on his mission to turn us all into idea alchemists. He shows how economists, businesses and governments have got it all wrong- we are not rational creatures who make logical decisions based on evidence. Instead, the big problems we face every day, whether as an individual or in society, could very well be solved by thinking less logically. To be brilliant, you have to be irrational.

Great Scent
Scent: Sweet Tobacco, Size: 8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I was looking for an everyday lotion that was close to the scent of some of my other personal items (shaving creams, etc). This was a shot in the dark, given that I have never used any of this company's products in the past. However, I was actually quite surprised today when I received this lotion. The packaging was nice enough, which sometimes isn't really all that important, but I always look at packaging as a sign of how much an organization cares for their products. The lotion its self has a great scent. I applied the lotion a few hours ago, and while the initial smell is a little strong, it fades quite nicely, leaving a more subtle smell hours later. I didn't find this lotion to be very greasy, especially after about 5 mins. I'm looking forward to using this over a longer period of time to better gauge its moisturizing effectiveness.

It's ALRIGHT
Scent: Sandalwood, Size: 8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Smells like unscented lotion like some say, it is made in China, so it could either be fake or just low quality because of that fact alone. Still helps a little bit with dry skin, it's not overly greasy/moisturizing.
