The Choice Factory by Richard Shotton dissects the quiet, everyday biases that steer our purchasing decisions, from the simplest snack to major strategic moves in work and life. Through clear, evidence-based reasoning drawn from academic research, real-world campaigns, and Shotton’s own insights, the book translates psychology into approachable, actionable guidance for marketers, product developers, and curious consumers alike. Paired with Big Feelings, Bad Purchases by Daniel Mercer, the set dives into the digital-age emotional rollercoaster that often leads to impulse spending. Mercer explores how dopamine, mood, and online triggers interact to produce a quick burst of satisfaction followed by regret, and offers practical ways to preserve joy while curb­ing unnecessary purchases. Together, these two titles empower smarter thinking about what we buy, how we spend, and how to buy better. This paperback bundle is ideal for readers seeking evidence-based strategies, tighter budgets, and a sharper lens on modern consumer behaviour.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat Makes This Collection Special:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nWhat makes this collection stand out is the thoughtful pairing of cognitive science with personal finance in a concise, readable format.
