In “Your Brain Is Always Listening,” Dr. Daniel G. Amen takes complicated mental health issues and breaks them down into easy-to-understand fairylike concepts, most prominently Dragons. In addition to going over the most vicious among these monsters – and outlining their general evolution – Amen also explains how one can tame them into submission, and thereby ensure a life of happiness and fulfillment for themselves.

In “Creativity,” he tries to substantiate this claim, drawing on his lifelong experience as a writer and the work of modern psychologists.

In the opinion of BJ Fogg, founder of the Behavior Design Lab at Stanford University, “Behaviors are like bicycles. They can look different, but the core mechanisms are the same. Wheels. Brakes. Pedals.” In the case of behaviors, the three elements are motivation, ability and prompts. “Tiny Habits” explores them all – and presents a seven-step method to easily outsmart them!

Written in the form of a Socratic dialogue between a philosopher and a young man, “The Courage to Be Disliked” uses the theories of Alfred Adler – one of the three giants of nineteenth-century psychology alongside Freud and Jung – to guide readers to unlocking the power within themselves to become the people they truly want to be.

The Courage to Be Disliked

Bestselling author Adam Grant is one of the foremost organizational psychologists of our age. One of his guiding principles in life is to argue like he’s right but listen like he’s wrong. In “Think Again” he illuminates the soundness of this philosophy.

The book is essentially structured around the four steps of the Hook Model – trigger, action, variable reward, and investment – which, its author Nir Eyal claims, are embedded into every successful product today so as to subtly encourage customer behavior.

In “Mindset,” world-renowned psychologist Carol S. Dweck proposes that there are two fundamental mindsets that people adapt: a fixed mindset and a growth mindset. By comparing and contrasting the two, she demonstrates why only one of them works – and how people can use this knowledge to improve and make the world a better place.

Biology, physics and a lot of experimentation!

Daniel Goleman’s “Emotional Intelligence” summarizes research from a decade of studies and shows us why emotional intelligence (EI) is just as important for a successful life as our IQ. Contrary to the academic knowledge measured by the IQ, EI is multifaceted and has an impact on our work performance, our relationships, and our health.
Goleman argues for a shift in educational focus: he makes the case for educating our children in the art of emotional intelligence, to prevent the rise of mental health issues and crime rates.


Groundbreaking when first published in 1990 – already a classic a few decades later – “Flow” summarizes, for a general audience, over 30 years of research by Hungarian American psychologist Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi. He focused on the positive aspects of human experience – joy, creativity, and the process of total involvement with life that the author calls “flow,” and we, colloquially, refer to as “being in the zone.”

Economics

Nobel prize winner Daniel Kahneman presents his compelling lifetime’s work in “Thinking, Fast and Slow.” By combining psychology and economics, he creates an engaging picture of how our minds work. While we may believe that we know best, and that our minds can be trusted, he shows that that is not so. In fact, our memories can mislead us, and the judgements we quickly form are based on a subconscious bias. By unravelling the workings of the mind, Kahneman shows us why critical thinking, especially about our intuitive reactions, can lead to more conscious decision-making.

“The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat” is a collection of 24 case studies of people with neurological disorders. Split into four sections corresponding to the underlying nature of the disorders – “Losses,” “Excesses,” “Transports” and “The World of the Simple” – the case studies demonstrate the weird, wonderful, remarkable and bizarre consequences of the various ways our brains can malfunction.

In “Getting to Yes,” Fisher and Ury share the findings from a negotiations project by Harvard. Bargaining over positions rarely leads to a beneficial and efficient agreement that does not damage relationships, principled negotiation, however, opens the possibility to focus on the interests and help invent options for mutual gain.
