Seth Stephens-Davidowitz has a great, casual writing style that allowed me to read this book so quickly. The author brings in work from a lot of economists and social scientists to legitimize his claims. Most importantly, he remains as objective as possible."

In a useful read full of memorable take-homes, he draws insights from big data relating to various spheres of our lives."
