Read by Dennis Boutsikaris.
Forty years ago, Israeli psychologists Daniel Kahneman and Amos Tversky wrote a series of breathtakingly original studies undoing assumptions about the decision-making process. Their papers showed the ways in which the human mind erred, systematically, when forced to make judgments about uncertain situations. Their work created the field of behavioral economics, revolutionized big data studies, advanced evidence-based medicine, led to a new approach to government regulation, and made much of Michael Lewis's own work possible.

Fascinating Subject submitted by benmurphysmith on July 31, 2018, 12:11am I listened to this book in proximity to listening to Thinking Fast and Slow. Very important subject that needs to be taught to young people. It's a shame that this knowledge exists, and yet people still make the same poor decisions without awareness of the heuristics they are employing, which in effect skews their judgement.
