Any smart business needs a 'moneylab' of its own

Of the many books on behavioral economics, none are as effective as Secrets of the Moneylab in applying science to the practical world of business. Read it and be prepared to change your approach

How Understanding People Will Increase Your Profits

Sensational books like Freakonomics have shown how human behaviour follows predictable patterns. But how do you take these radical ideas and apply them to your business? How do you make money from them? 
 
Secrets of the Moneylab sets out what business can learn from the findings of the new economics and social psychology. It shows how you can shape desires, use incentives and reduce risks to consistently improve the bottom line. 
 
In his experimental lab at Hewlett-Packard, chief economist Kay-Yut Chen is running groundbreaking research into human behaviour. He packs Secrets of the Moneylab with insights into the invisible forces controlling the world of business. 
 
These findings, which defy conventional wisdom and traditional economic theory, will help you engineer your business for success.
