Daniel Kahneman · 2011

A groundbreaking exploration of the two systems that drive the way we think.

Nobel laureate Daniel Kahneman's magnum opus explores the two systems that drive the way we think: System 1 is fast, intuitive, and emotional; System 2 is slower, more deliberative, and more logical. Kahneman exposes the extraordinary capabilities—and also the faults and biases—of fast thinking, revealing how cognitive biases affect everything from playing the stock market to planning our next vacation. The book covers heuristics and biases, overconfidence, the nature of decision-making, and the difference between our experiencing and remembering selves. It fundamentally changed how we understand human judgment and choice.
