Harford’s newest book celebrates the benefits that messiness
can have in our lives. Drawing on
extensive research, the author makes the case that qualities such as creativity,
responsiveness, resilience often result from the clutter, mess, and disorder
that generate them. Messy is a provocative examination of the genuine advantages that
messiness can have in our lives.
