Katy Milkman, 2021
Finished June 2026
Goodreads →Full Review →My Take
Not my first behavioral design book, but the first I've added to this list, and a good choice. Milkman covers practical ways to create change for yourself and for others.
What stands out is her background in engineering. She keeps returning to that mindset, but she also teaches MBA students at Wharton, so she clearly knows how to cross disciplines and turn ideas into action.
What role this plays in the Lab
This book gives me practical, research-backed ways to close the gap between what I mean to do and what I actually follow through on.
