About this ebook
Pulitzer Prize winning author, Charles Duhigg, explores habits in his first book release, The Power of Habit. In this book, the reader will discover how and why habits form, and they will be handed the key to change those habits. Duhigg uses scientific information and research to support his theories. He also discusses how corporations like McDonald's use habits to gain more customers. The famous Olympic gold medal winning swimmer Michael Phelps is also discussed to explain how habits can bring about success. Duhigg discusses the Montgomery Bus Boycott to show how keystone habits can set off a chain reaction of events. Finally, he gives readers the blueprint they need to change their own bad habits. The Power of Habit was nominated for The Financial Times and McKinsey Book of the Year in 2012.
