*Good habits, as moral codes and religion have taught us since time immemorial, create a good life, but it is only in the last 30 years that neurology and psychology have developed habit formation and self-discipline into a science. 


*The Power of Habit was one of the first books to bring this emerging science to a popular audience, and it makes for fascinating reading. 


*Considering various examples, from Olympic swimmers to high-flying CEOs, individuals to organizations and societies, Duhigg reveals how changing habits can change fortunes and transform lives.
