Thinking, Fast and Slow

Editorial review

The Nobel laureate distills decades of work in cognitive and behavioral psychology into a single framework: a fast, intuitive 'System 1' and a slow, deliberate 'System 2,' whose interactions explain a wide range of systematic errors in human judgment. Each chapter introduces a bias and the experiments that revealed it.
