"Swati Basu uses the contemporary metaphor of the algorithm to reveal the invisible patterns that shape our lives and offers a practical, accessible roadmap for meaningful change. This book invites readers to become both code-breakers and code-writers of their own lives."

- Matthew Dahlitz
CEO, The Science of Psychotherapy

Every mind is running an invisible code.

Most people move through life unaware of the invisible patterns shaping their thoughts, emotions, decisions, habits, and relationships. What feels like personality, instinct, or fate is often something else entirely: learned behavioural algorithms running beneath conscious awareness.
In The Human Algorithms, psychologist Swati Lahiri Basu presents a powerful framework for understanding how human behaviour is formed, reinforced, and ultimately transformed. Drawing from psychology, neuroscience, and behavioural science, this book explores the hidden systems shaping emotion, behaviour, identity, relationships, and meaning itself.
Through compelling narrative, practical insight, and psychologically grounded models, The Human Algorithms invites readers to decode the patterns shaping their lives, interrupt automatic loops, and consciously rewrite the internal code shaping who they become.
