Once again, its time to peruse the data to see which books TBP readers bought last month. Amazon’s embed code lets me track every click from these links — how many people look at the page, how many books get seen, and/or collectively purchased.
Its anonymous — I don’t know who bought what — but there’s lots of data on the various books generated.
These were the most popular TBP books for February:
How We Know What Isn’t So: The Fallibility of Human Reason in Everyday Life [2] (Thomas Gilovich)
The Fortune Sellers: The Big Business of Buying and Selling Predictions [3] (The Fortune Sellers: The Big Business of Buying and Selling Predictions)
Wait: The Art and Science of Delay [4] (Humphrey B. Neill)
Pound Foolish: Exposing the Dark Side of the Personal Finance Industry [5] (Helaine Olen)
The Dow Jones averages, 1885-1980 [6] (Phyllis S. Pierce)
The Art of Contrary Thinking [6] (Humphrey B. Neill)
