This book reveals how our minds are tripped up by error and prejudice (even when we think we are being logical), and gives you practical techniques for slower, smarter thinking. The answer lies in the two ways we make choices: fast, intuitive thinking, and slow, rational thinking. Why do we assume a good-looking person will be more competent? Why are judges more likely to deny parole before lunch? Why is there more chance we'll believe something if it's in a bold type face? The phenomenal New York Times Bestseller by Nobel Prize-winner Daniel Kahneman, Thinking Fast and Slow offers a whole new look at the way our minds work, and how we make decisions. Drawing on a lifetime’s experimental experience, Kahneman reveals where we can and cannot trust our intuitions and how we can tap into the benefits of slow thinking.
