Where to start with this one.
Yes, you do have to be a bit of a geek, but most bookcrossers are in one way or another.
It's all about the psychology of pricing and why we make the decisions we do. Why is 99 such a magic number, why is a house worth £x and is it really, what is an anchor point and how could we use it?
fascinating stuff some of which I will implement immediately at work, if the boss asks why I'll refer him to the book.
All backed by the research data and yes I know you can do anything with statistics and they do, they twist the stats upside down and inside out to illustrate points.
Well worth a read. Well spent £9.99 and yes it had been marked down from £99.99

Journal Entry 8 by wingardachywing at Colchester, Essex United Kingdom on Thursday, February 6, 2014
A fascinating read packed full of scientific case studies but so well written I hardly noticed. This book is not just for those with an interest in economics but should by of interest to anyone who would like to know more about human behaviour. Highly recommended.

Left at Penenden Heath Little Free Library. Looks like a challenging read! I'm about to go on holiday and it won't be one I take as light reading! My son's an economist working in emerging markets. This could be up his street.
