Finance β¦ Penny’s Take
The New Psychology of Money
Adrian Furnham Β· 2014
70/100
π Worth It
Adrian Furnham's decades of research give this behavioral-economics survey real credibility, and the four-domain structure gives readers a broad map of how psychology shapes financial behavior. It is more foundation than deep dive on any single topic, and some sections feel light on evidence, but for an adult reader who wants a serious, readable overview this is a solid choice.
β¦ Penny’s Take β this is The Review Group’s own editorial assessment. Penny’s analytical review line researched this book from real sources and scored it across the lenses shown below. It’s an honest first-party read β not a page-by-page personal one. The gold β Penny Tested mark is reserved for books Penny reads cover to cover herself.
