About the author
Annie Duke is an American author and former professional poker player who writes about decisions under uncertainty. Poker supplies a useful discipline for separating the quality of a choice from the outcome that happened afterward.
Thinking in Bets develops that separation into methods for belief and review. Quit applies the same uncertainty-aware approach to stopping projects whose original assumptions no longer hold.
Where to start
Start with Thinking in Bets for decision quality, then read Quit for the related problem of deciding when persistence has stopped paying.
