"One of the most mesmerizing and important books I've read in quite some time. Alter brilliantly illuminates the new obsessions that are controlling our lives and offers the tools we need to rescue our businesses, our families, and our sanity." --Adam Grant, New York Times bestselling author of Originals and Give and Take Welcome to the age of behavioral addiction--an age in which half of the American population is addicted to at least one behavior. We obsess over our emails, Instagram likes, and Facebook feeds; we binge on TV episodes and YouTube videos; we work longer hours each year; and we spend an average of three hours each day using our smartphones. Half of us would rather suffer a broken bone than a broken phone, and Millennial kids spend so much time in front of screens that they struggle to interact with real, live humans. In this revolutionary book, Adam Alter, a professor of psychology and marketing at NYU, tracks the rise of behavioral addiction, and explains why so many of today's products are irresistible. Though these miraculous products melt the miles that separate people across the globe, their extraordinary and sometimes damaging magnetism is no accident. The companies that design these products tweak them over time until they become almost impossible to resist. By reverse engineering behavioral addiction, Alter explains how we can harness addictive products for the good--to improve how we communicate with each other, spend and save our money, and set boundaries between work and play--and how we can mitigate their most damaging effects on our well-being, and the health and happiness of our children.

Great quality and durable watch case. The hinge on the lid gives it stronger support.

Sturdy and classy
Size: 12*3*2 Inches, Color: Black(2PCS)
I purchased these individual mesh dividers to replace solid plastic dividers for three reasons - cleaning ability, function , and. appearance. I am extremely happy with this choice on all accounts. I am very happy with the mesh as crumbs etc fall through the dividers which eliminates trying to clean all 4 tiny corners of each divider Simply remove the dividers, vacuum the crumbs, wipe the drawer with cleaner, and return the dividers. Because these are individual dividers, they can be configured to your specific need or choice. Both of these reasons are as expected. In addition, they are sturdy and do not bend or warp. But what surprised me the most is the difference using the black color makes! The appearance when the drawer is opened looks classy and high quality. So, so glad I didn’t get the solid wood dividers as again I’d be cleaning tiny corners with a Q-tip. I would buy these again.

Bought eons ago, still holding up.
Size: 9*3*2 Inches, Color: Grey(4PCS)
Easy to clean, sturdy, and there are little footies on the bottom (as long as you're not like me and accidentally wash them off). Fits well, works well, as we use them for sorting out utensils and keeping drawer gunk off of them.

Helps to be organized!
Size: 12*3*2 Inches, Color: Black(2PCS)
It helped me to get so organized! Wonderful product! I have always been a very organized person to the point of having OCD. These organizers have been a godsend. They are pretty long probably 12 in and probably 2 in wide. I fit pens, my stapler, rulers, etc in them. They fit perfectly into my top desk drawer. Such a difference instead of throwing your items haphazardly in your drawer. Very sturdy but thin. Made of metal so durable. Very easy to clean with a wipe if necessary. Not that expensive at all. Comes with 2 holders. Such a helpful product. Highly recommend!
