As a psychology graduate, the summary of The Perfect Tulip by Alexander Martinez grabbed my attention as soon as I read it. The idea of a tool that could help me make decisions interested me both as a psychology professional and as an individual that has often faced indecision when it has come to making personal decisions. I liked the Dutch stories as not only did they provide great context, but also they were enjoyable to read. I found the author’s process to be both psychologically sound and extremely useful.
