About this audiobook
You've rushed through another airport, convinced the "efficient" layout saves time, only to end up trapped in a maze of overpriced traps. Misled by Design exposes how systems like healthcare, suburbs, and even modern love were polished and sold as progress, but engineered as scams. It invites you to spot where efficiency has misled you too.
