"For anyone who thinks they can't relate to the world of economists, Hate the Game will change their minds. Fairweather shows you how to make your best moves--whether it's negotiating a higher salary, getting that promotion, or buying your first home. She reveals how you can take control of your future by learning the rules of the game. This book takes your favorite movies and popular culture and uses them as metaphors that will inspire a new generation to become interested in economics. Get ready to embrace economic thinking to make smarter decisions!"--Angela Yee, host of "Way Up"

"Hate the Game offers practical strategies for the hardest competitive negotiations in our lives: those where we face bias and uncertainty. Fairweather shows that by applying just a few basic insights from economic theory, we can turn competition into cooperation--and perhaps even learn to love the game."--Roger Myerson, winner of the Nobel Prize in economics

"Insights and reasoning from economics can, in the hands of a superb communicator, help us understand and undertake actions that improve human lives. Hate the Game is the rare book that masterfully serves this function in ways that are both entertaining and important. Fairweather has a rare gift for making economics feel not only essential but personal, too." --Kerwin Charles, Yale University School of Management
