'The Why Axis' (co-authored with John List)

"The Why Axis," co-authored by John List, explores how understanding the motivations behind people's decisions can lead to better policies and outcomes in various fields, including economics and social issues. The book emphasizes the importance of asking "why" people behave the way they do, rather than solely focusing on statistical data. By integrating insights from behavioral science and economics, the authors highlight how grasping the underlying reasons for human actions can improve strategies in areas like education, health, and philanthropy, ultimately enhancing social welfare and effective decision-making.
