Scarcity - Why Having Too Little Means So Much

I purchased this book after listening to the the author’s interview on “PIMA” podcast

The primary focus of the book is how scarcity, whether it’s in terms of money, time, social contact, or other resources, influences our behavior. What we sometimes perceive as incompetence, laziness, indifference, or any other negative traits used to describe someone’s behavior could be a consequence of their limited bandwidth due to scarcity.

Another way of looking at people and situations.

Never Split the Difference - Negotiating as if Your Life Depended on It

I did the audio version of the book and was initially put off by the narrator’s dramatic voice. I decided to ignore the nasal accent and pay attention to the content, and I am happy that I persisted. This book is a treasure. I like how it combines crime scenes and professional as well as personal scenarios. The concepts of behavioral economics ““ loss aversion, anchoring bias, and more ““ are explained very well through the real-life crime and drama stories.
