I have some exciting news! My latest book, Sharkonomics, has sold almost 10.000 copies in China. This is the first edition in simply Chinese and the publisher is currently preparing for another edition in advance Chinese.

Dan Ariely is probably one of the sharpest and wittiest scientist on earth. In this lecture he covers an interesting topic of how we lie.

Check out his lecture below:

Behavioral economist Dan Ariely studies the bugs in our moral code: the hidden reasons we think it’s OK to cheat or steal (sometimes). Clever studies help make his point that we’re predictably irrational — and can be influenced in ways we can’t grasp.
