Frequently, when I read a book, I read the acknowledgments first. Am I the only one who does this? Anyway, I hope any fellow acknowledgment aficionados enjoy what follows.
My biggest thanks are to the scientists discussed in the book. I thank them both for their work and for talking to me about it. In particular, I benefited from discussions with Albert-Lszl Barabsi, Paul Eastwick, Sam Fraiberger, Samantha Joel, George MacKerron, Alexander Todorov, Danny Yagan, and Eric Zwick.
Some of my interpretations of the work may be a bit different from those of the scientists who conducted the studies; all of the original studies can be found in the endnotes.
For help with gathering data and stories and collaborating on research projects, I thank Anna Gt, Spencer Greenberg, David Kestenbaum, Lou Corina Lacambra, and Bill Mallon.
For offering feedback on sections, I thank Coren Apicella, Sam Asher, Esther Davidowitz, Amanda Gordon, Nate Hilger, Maxim Massenkoff, Aurlie Ouss, Julia Rubalevskaya, John Sillings, Katia Sobolski, Joel Stein, Mitchell Stephens, Lauren Stephens-Davidowitz, Noah Stephens-Davidowitz, Logan Ury, and Jean Yang.
Thanks to Sourav Choudhary and Adam Shapiro for offering me consulting opportunities that came with friendship and gentle nudges to finish my book.
For more new friendships and gentle nudges to finish my book, I thank the Hirsch and Seessel families.
For less-gentle but more effective nudges to finish my book, I thank Matt Harper. Matt is a wonderful editor who had the unenviable task of keeping me focusedand handled it splendidly.
For impeding me from finishing my book with endless memes and ferocious political debate, I thank #YouAreFakeNews.
Melvis Acosta is a rock star fact-checker with an attention to detail that I did not realize was humanly possible. Any remaining errors are likely due to my skipping over one of the items in the pages of notes Melvis sent on every chapter.
Eric Lupfer remains an off-the-charts thoughtful and creative agent.
The research in says that parents can influence how their kids think about them. And I think my parents are the best in the world. So causal outcome achieved, Mom and Dad! I also suspect we are an outlier family in how much you have helped my career.
The research in says that people arent, on average, much happier when spending time with their family. But if Mappiness or another experience sampling service measured my happiness, I am confident that there would be a big boost when I am with Noah, Lauren, Mark, Jonah, Sasha, and the rest of the Stephens-Davidowitz-Osmond-Fryman-Wild-Sklaire clan.
And if Mappiness followed me for the past decade, theyd notice a dramatic change in my mood after working with the worlds greatest therapist, Rick Rubens. Thank you, Rick, for helping me work through my depression.
Julia, thanks for everything. You know I struggle with expressing emotional warmth; but you also know how much I love you.
