Reviews

"The Wisest One in the Room combines rich science, compelling stories, and graceful prose to teach you more about other people and yourself than you ever thought you knew. Two of the world's greatest social psychologists will help you understand the sources of many of the world's greatest triumphs and most pressing problems--from racism to partisanship, from happiness to consumer behavior, from media biases to international conflicts, from persuasion to healthy eating, from knocking out educational disparities to mitigating climate change. Every person who wants to be wiser, happier, and more successful--and that includes most of us--should read this book."-- "Sonja Lyubomirsky, Ph.D., professor of psychology at the University of California, Riverside and bes"

"In The Wisest One in the Room, Gilovich and Ross weave social science, history and anecdotes in a compelling way to help us understand human nature, where we make mistakes and how we might be able to live to our full potential."--Dan Ariely, professor of psychology and behavioral economics, and most recently bestselling author of Irrationally Yours
