    Nudge: Improving Decisions About Health, Wealth, and Happiness

    In a world where our choices are never as free as they seem, Nudge reveals the hidden levers that shape how we decide—from what we eat to how we save, vote, or plan our futures. Through the lens of behavioral science, it explores how small, well-placed cues—nudges—can guide us toward wiser, healthier, and more ethical outcomes without taking away our agency. But can gentle guidance coexist with true freedom, or does every choice architecture carry the fingerprints of power? With clarity and warmth, this book challenges us to see decision-making not as a cold calculation, but as a deeply human dance between impulse, intention, and design. It is a quiet manifesto for a smarter society—one choice at a time.
