How tech companies like Google, Airbnb, StubHub, and Facebook learn from experiments in our data-driven world?an excellent primer on experimental and behavioral economics   Have you logged into Facebook recently?

In this book, Michael Luca and Max Bazerman explain the importance of experiments for decision making in a data-driven world. Luca and Bazerman describe the central role experiments play in the tech sector, drawing lessons and best practices from the experiences of such companies as StubHub, Alibaba, and Uber.
