Imagine you're in the cereal aisle at the supermarket with the simple task of buying Cheerios, but then a box of Honey Nut Cheerios catches your eye - then Multi Grain, Fruity, Chocolate, the list goes on... Which one do you choose? How do we decide and how important are these decisions in the long run? Fisher Stevens takes us on a thrilling journey around the world and into the lives of people on the verge of making huge life decisions. From a young woman in New York debating having her stomach removed to prevent cancer, to a couple navigating a fraught international adoption in Ethiopia, we explore life's most vulnerable and important moments. In San Miguel de Allende, Mexico, Ricardo risks it all in a perilous border crossing to the United States in search of a better life. And Jadeveon Clowney, the #1 college football recruit from South Carolina, is thrust into the limelight as the subject of a highly publicized bidding war. Fun social experiments and interviews with experts including Sheena Iyengar, Dan Ariely, and Jonah Lehrer provide fascinating insight in the fields of psychology and neuroscience, to help understand why we make the choices we do.
