A great guide to some of the basic science of habits, at least as far as I could tell as an absolute layperson in any of the relevant fields. An entertaining read with particularly good story-telling for the type of popular non-fiction book this is. If you want excellent and careful interpretation of the current state of science, I suspect this book isn't your best bet, but my impression was that this book was carefully researched and articulated enough for my purposes. I'm optimistic that the ideas in this book will help me with the constant challenge of crafting better habits!
