1 rich Libsyn https://www.libsyn.com 90 600 Charles Duhigg combines skillful reporting and voluminous research with a deft storytelling style to ‘show,’ not merely ‘tell,’ readers and listeners how to improve their lives and gain a better understanding of the world around them. He currently serves as a writer for The New Yorker and host of “How To!,” a weekly podcast produced for Slate. He is the author of two global bestselling books: “The Power of Habit” and “Smarter Faster Better.” In 2013, while a reporter for The New York Times, Duhigg and his colleagues received the Pulitzer Prize for Explanatory Reporting for their articles exposing the darker side of business practices at Apple and other technology companies. Duhigg attributes the enormous success of his two books to his style of storytelling, designed to deliver actionable advice. “One of the reasons people like [my books] is because [they] take these stories and draw insights from them that other people can use in their own lives,” he says.
