Description

This brilliant and entertaining book documents a major flaw in human actions and decisions: the bias against quitting. I learned a lot from its compelling tales of failures and sound recommendations. You will too

This brilliant and entertaining book documents a major flaw in human actions and decisions: the bias against quitting. I learned a lot from its compelling tales of failures and sound recommendations. You will too

Every business school has a course in starting new businesses, but few have a course in shutting them down at the right time. This book fills that gap with brilliant new insights and fantastic stories. Quit what you are doing right now and start reading this book

Illuminating, easily digestible... she neatly summarizes social-science research from psychologist Daniel Kahneman, economist Richard Thaler and others that helps explain our seemingly irrational behavior when it comes to persisting and even escalating our commitment in the face of losing propositions

Engrossing, important, and grounded in science, Quit is a gem that will allow you to navigate the world more effectively

A game-changing book of strategy from a world-class thinker on risk and decision-making

Offers a wealth of knowledge to help you figure out when to persist and when to pull the plug

Quit is the rare book that is both a page-turner and a legitimately important contribution. If you've never thought of quitting as a competitive advantage before, prepare to be enlightened

There aren't many times you will say, "this book changed my life." This is one of them



Only a poker player could write this classic book on when--and more importantly how--to fold a bad hand in business, investing, relationships and life

The opposite of a great virtue is also a virtue. And Quit is the perfect dialectical complement to Grit. Weave these two virtues into your character and live a much more fulfilling life

Quitting is not just an art; it's also a science - and there is no one so uniquely suited to teach us both as Annie Duke

You won't want to quit reading this book, both because it is such a rewarding read and also because its lessons are so important, useful, and memorable.

Not since Kenny Rogers has an expert storyteller so clearly demonstrated the importance of knowing when to hold 'em and when to fold 'em, nor presented a clearer strategy to determine when, instead of merely walking away, it's time to run
