Reviews"One trait of history's most creative thinkers--from Leonardo da Vinci to Albert Einstein--is that they are able to look anew and marvel at everyday things that most people have quit noticing: the alluring blueness of the sky, the passage of time, the way a light beam creates a spot of luster on a leaf. Look Again can help us all look in a fresh way at things around us. It's a smart and fun read, and a valuable way to revitalize your life." --Walter Isaacson, New York Times bestselling author of Steve Jobs "A sensational guide to a more psychologically rich life." --Angela Duckworth, New York Times bestselling author of Grit "In Look Again , Sharot and Sunstein offer an insightful look into the science of habituation. Their insights into the why and how of getting used to things teach us how to hack habituation to bring more joy to our lives. A surprising and delightful book." --Annie Duke, bestselling author of Thinking in Bets " Look Again is the perfect book to help you refresh your point of view. Sharot and Sunstein reveal why it's easy to be lulled into complacency about anything and how to prevent falling into this trap. In the bargain, they'll help you live a happier, healthier, wiser and more just life." --Katy Milkman, bestselling author of How to Change, "Corralling a wealth of fascinating examples...Sharot and Sunstein provide a revelatory investigation of a phenomenon that's as complex as it is common. This enthralls." -- Publishers Weekly , starred review "With intelligence and humor, Sharot and Sunstein provide guidance on how to refresh the spirit and see the world anew. If your world is starting to look grey and dull, this book might be your road map out of the comfort zone." -- Kirkus Reviews " Look Again is a worthy addition to literature at the intersection of psychology, neuroscience, and economics, making them accessible to the general reader." -- Shelf Awareness "One trait of history's most creative thinkers--from Leonardo da Vinci to Albert Einstein--is that they are able to look anew and marvel at everyday things that most people have quit noticing: the alluring blueness of the sky, the passage of time, the way a light beam creates a spot of luster on a leaf. Look Again can help us all look in a fresh way at things around us. It's a smart and fun read, and a valuable way to revitalize your life." --Walter Isaacson, New York Times bestselling author of Steve Jobs "Timely and important.

SynopsisThis "smart and fun read, and a valuable way to revitalize your life" (Walter Isaacson) deftly explains how disrupting our well-worn routines, both good and bad, can rejuvenate and reset our brains for the better. Have you ever noticed that what is exciting on Monday tends to become boring on Friday? Even passionate relationships, stimulating jobs, and breathtaking works of art lose their sparkle after a while. As easy as it is to stop noticing what is most wonderful in our lives, it's also possible to stop noticing what is terrible. People get used to dirty air. They become unconcerned by their own misconduct, blind to inequality, and are more liable to believe misinformation than ever before. Now, neuroscience professor Tali Sharot and Harvard law professor (and presidential advisor) Cass R. Sunstein investigate why we stop noticing both the great and not-so-great things around us and how to "dishabituate" at the office, in the bedroom, at the store, on social media, and in the voting booth. This groundbreaking and "sensational guide to a more psychological rich life" (Angela Duckworth, New York Times bestselling author), based on decades of research, illuminates how we can reignite the sparks of joy, innovate, and recognize where improvements urgently need to be made. The key to this disruption--to seeing, feeling, and noticing again--is change. By temporarily changing your environment, changing the rules, changing the people you interact with--or even just stepping back and imagining change--you regain sensitivity, allowing you to identify more clearly the bad and more deeply appreciate the good.
