Ask This Book a Question

“Everyone should read this magical book! Viewing our questions—from trivial to challenging—through the prism of Vicki's delightfully wise stories creates a constellation of insights that will change the way you navigate your inner world.”

— Buster Benson, author of Why Are We Yelling?

An exploration into better decision making, grounded in the science of cognitive bias and the wisdom of storytelling

Ask This Book A Question arrives like a trusted friend, one who knows that decision making is less about unlocking secrets and more about understanding the quiet ways we navigate uncertainty.

Through a series of visual prompts, the book maps the invisible geography of our minds – from our perception of time to our tendency to remember the bizarre over the familiar to the shortcuts we take when avoiding difficult truths.

This book is a companion for anyone who has ever felt stuck under the weight of too many choices, offering a thoughtful way to sit with uncertainty and navigate life’s most pressing questions.

"In Ask This Book a Question, Vicki Tan turns decision-making into an interactive, self-reflective journey. This guide will help you navigate life’s uncertainties with clarity and curiosity.”

— Nir Eyal, author of Hooked and Indistractable
