NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - This instant classic explores how we can
change our lives by changing our habits.
NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY The Wall Street Journal -
Financial Times
In The Power of Habit, award-winning business reporter Charles Duhigg
takes us to the thrilling edge of scientific discoveries that explain
why habits exist and how they can be changed. Distilling vast amounts of
information into engrossing narratives that take us from the boardrooms
of Procter & Gamble to the sidelines of the NFL to the front lines of
the civil rights movement, Duhigg presents a whole new understanding of
human nature and its potential. At its core, The Power of Habit
contains an exhilarating argument: The key to exercising regularly,
losing weight, being more productive, and achieving success is
understanding how habits work. As Duhigg shows, by harnessing this new
science, we can transform our businesses, our communities, and our
lives.
