Book Description
You have this book in your hands with the intent of being entertained, I presume. I hope that is the case. Some of you wish to whoosh through this tract, not expecting to discover any characters or gems of insight. I pray that you stop in your tracks and say, Son of a gun! I never thought of that! or perhaps I like looking at that from a different angle! That would be nice, because I believe such insights are in here, waiting to be discovered like jewelry in Grandmas boudoir. Now even though Im encroaching on some unmentionable years in my life, this is just my second novel! And I didnt think it would be such a momentous effort. I created scenes and characters that didnt exist before this! Where were they before? In my insane brain, I suppose. I was amazed to count and come to the realization that Id created over forty people! Many of them have come from parts of people I knew, and I thank them. Also, some of the people I created have become friends. I will miss them! Also, I trust that you, the reader, will enjoy to some degree the scenes and ideas I wrote for you without too many curves or knucklers so you can swing and hit home runs again and again while you find pleasure in the reading. Also, I mention addictions often in this book. I learned that there are good addictions and bad ones. I had the bad habit of smoking for many years, and I am so sorry now. If only I could unsmoke every cigarette Id had, but of course, I cant. And the damage is done to my lungs. Thank you, cigarette companies, for the gifts of packs and cartons while in the military! But dont focus on this one idea. Theres so much more in this book. Like sex! So enough of all that. Please read and enjoy! Or else!

Chena Hot Springs Road Reconstruction, Mile 21 to Mile 55, Interior District
The Last Mile
Author: Dilip Soman
Publisher: University of Toronto Press
ISBN: 1442616644
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 297
Book Description
Most organizations spend much of their effort on the start of the value creation process: namely, creating a strategy, developing new products or services, and analyzing the market. They pay a lot less attention to the end: the crucial “last mile” where consumers come to their website, store, or sales representatives and make a choice. In The Last Mile, Dilip Soman shows how to use insights from behavioral science in order to close that gap. Beginning with an introduction to the last mile problem and the concept of choice architecture, the book takes a deep dive into the psychology of choice, money, and time. It explains how to construct behavioral experiments and understand the data on preferences that they provide. Finally, it provides a range of practical tools with which to overcome common last mile difficulties. The Last Mile helps lay readers not only to understand behavioral science, but to apply its lessons to their own organizations’ last mile problems, whether they work in business, government, or the nonprofit sector. Appealing to anyone who was fascinated by Dan Ariely’s Predictably Irrational, Richard Thaler and Cass Sunstein’s Nudge, or Daniel Kahneman’s Thinking, Fast and Slow but was not sure how those insights could be practically applied, The Last Mile is full of solid, concrete advice on how to put the lessons of behavioral science to work.
