选择的悖论 – The Paradox of Choice: Why More Is Less by Barry Schwartz

在本书中,作者提出了一个革命性的观点:幸福意味着拥有自由和选择,但更多的自由和选择并不能带来更大的幸福,相反,选择越多,幸福越少。

究其原因,作者认为,首先,当人们面对更多的选择时,反而不能做出明智的选择,因为我们的选择总是受到锚定效应、框架效应、可获得性启发式等心理因素的影响。其次,即使人们做出了正确的选择,也不一定会感到满足,因为适应效应、比较、机会成本等因素会降低我们的主观感受。

In the spirit of Alvin Tofflers’ Future Shock, a social critique of our obsession with choice, and how it contributes to anxiety, dissatisfaction and regret. Whether we’re buying a pair of jeans, ordering a cup of coffee, selecting a long-distance carrier, applying to college, choosing a doctor, or setting up a 401K, everyday decisions have become increasingly complex due to the overwhelming abundance of choice with which we are presented.

In The Paradox of Choice, Barry Schwartz explains why too much of a good thing has proven detrimental to our psychological and emotional well-being. In accessible, engaging, and anecdotal prose, Schwartz explains how a culture that thrives on the availability of constantly evolving options can also foster profound dissatisfaction and self-blame in individuals, which can lead to a paralysis in decision making and, in some cases, depression.

With the latest studies on how we make choices in our personal and professional lives, Schwartz offers practical advice on how to focus on the right choices, and how to derive greater satisfaction from choices that we do make.
