A Paperback Original A short, cutting-edge master class covering everything you need to know about thinking and decision-making—featuring contributions by the worlds leading psychologists and thinkers, including Daniel Kahneman, Nassim Taleb, Richard Thaler, and more
In Thinking, today’s most influential scientists and psychologists explain everything you need to know about the unique processes of human thought, rationality, happiness, and decision-making. Contributors and topics include:
- “The Marvels and the Flaws of Intuitive Thinking” by Daniel Kahneman (Nobel Prize winning author of Thinking, Fast and Slow), looks at astonishing new revelations in psychology regarding the power (and pitfalls) of human intuition and “unconscious” thinking.
- “Affective Forecasting… Or… The Big Wombassa: What You Think You’re Going to Get, and What You Don’t Get, When You Get What You Want” by Daniel Gilbert (author of Stumbling on Happiness), on the uniquely human ability to forecast what we want-and why people are rarely as happy or unhappy as they might expect to be.
- “The Fourth Quadrant: A Map Of The Limits Of Statistics” by Nassim Nicholas Taleb (author of The Black Swan and Fooled By Randomness), on data analysis and the notion that the more data one has, the more likely one is to be “fooled” by randomness.
- “Smart Heuristics” by Gerd Gigerenzer, on human rationality and the heuristics involved in the wide-ranging fields of human choice.
- “The New Science of Morality” – a “master class” from Jonathan Haidt, Sam Harris and more, on the neurological underpinnings of human morality, and how such pathways affect everything about the way we think, from our ability to find happiness and interact with others to our innate sense of “good” and “evil.”
