NONFICTION


The book is basically about examining the human behavior for incentives and how certain data results in certain economics. It also talks about how different scenarios have different outcomes. The message the author is trying to convey is that things are not always as they may seem. You need to examine certain factors to come to certain conclusions. Many times it is not the most conventional way. The part of the book that stood out to me the most was the subject matter on sumo wrestlers, ku klux klan, cheating teachers, and pushy realtors because the authors did a good job of connecting all of these subjects that may seem otherwise unconnected. The group role I enjoyed the most is commentator because it allowed me as a reader to share my perspective without any inhibitions and shed light on the topic my way. My overall opinion of the boo is that it would be a great read for someone that is not gullible or easily influenced by information or data that is presented in a sophisticated way. The techniques that I used to get through the reading was to make sure that my environment was really quiet and zen. I had to make sure nothing else was going on because the book was busy itself. It was challenging because of the subject matter. I wouldn't recommend this book.
