Paperback, [EAN: 9780062312785], Harper Perennial, Harper Perennial, Book, [PU: Harper Perennial], Harper Perennial, About the book: the paradox of choice in the spirit of alvin tofflers future shock, a social critique of our obsession with choice, and how it contributes to anxiety, dissatisfaction and regret. Whether were buying a pair of jeans, ordering a cup of coffee, selecting a long-distance carrier, applying to college, choosing a doctor, or setting up a 401k, everyday decisions have become increasingly complex due to the overwhelming abundance of choice with which we are presented. In the paradox of choice, barry schwartz explains why too much of a good thing has proven detrimental to our psychological and emotional well-being. In accessible, engaging, and anecdotal prose, schwartz explains how a culture that thrives on the availability of constantly evolving options can also foster profound dissatisfaction and self-blame in individuals, which can lead to a paralysis in decision making and, in some cases, depression. With the latest studies on how we make choices in our personal and professional lives, schwartz offers practical advice on how to focus on the right choices, and how to derive greater satisfaction from choices that we do make.
