Pequena biografia
Art Markman is the Annabel Irion Worsham Centennial Professor of Psychology and Marketing at the University of Texas at Austin. He is also the Founding Director of the Program in the Human Dimensions of Organizations.  The HDO program brings the humanities and the social behavioral sciences to people in business.

He got his ScB from Brown University and his PhD from the University of Illinois.  Before coming to the University of Texas, Art taught at Northwestern University and Columbia University.

Art's research explores thinking.  He has studied the way people form and use analogies, the mechanisms of decision making, the modes that allow people to form a categories, and the influences of motivation on reasoning.  Art is also the executive editor of the journal Cognitive Science and is a former executive officer of the Cognitive Science Society.

Art has always been interested in bringing insights from Cognitive Science to a broader audience. To that end, he writes blogs for many sites including Psychology Today and Fast Company.  He consults for companies interested in using Cognitive Science in their businesses.  Art is also on the scientific advisory boards for the Dr. Phil Show and the Dr. Oz Show.

Along with Bob Duke, Art hosts the radio show Two Guys on Your Head for KUT Radio in Austin.  Two Guys on Your Head is available as a podcast on iTunes and Soundcloud.  You can also follow the show on Twitter. 

When he's not doing things related to Cognitive Science, Art can be found spending time with his family or playing sax in a blues band.

Simple and short synthesis of lots of books/articles on the topic of habit forming.

The useful information in this book could be reduced to a note card. The illustrative examples read like a redundant series of infomercials.
