Product Description
Thinking, Fast and Slow by Nobel winner Daniel Kahneman offers a deep study of the two systems that drive our thoughts and decisions: System 1, the fast, natural, and emotional reaction, and System 2, the slow, careful, and logical thinking process.
This book is a must-read for anyone interested in psychology, decision-making, and human behavior, offering useful insights into why we think the way we do and how we can think better.
Kahneman expertly shows how these systems work, combine, and often lead to cognitive flaws and mistakes in judgment. Drawing on decades of study, the book shows how we can improve our decision-making, avoid common mistakes, and gain greater insights into human behavior.
