Daniel Levitin's book, quoted by Bruce Daisley for its claim that the brain can only make a limited number of decisions per day before decision quality degrades regardless of importance — despite Daisley otherwise dismissing the book itself ("don't buy that book, it's appalling"). Source for the Ego Depletion (Decision Fatigue) concept in this episode.
