About the author
Daniel Kahneman was an Israeli-American psychologist whose research transformed the study of judgment and decision-making. His work with Amos Tversky showed how systematic mental shortcuts complicate the economic picture of the consistently rational person.
Thinking, Fast and Slow organizes that work around fast impressions and effortful reasoning. Noise, written with Olivier Sibony and Cass Sunstein, shifts the scale from recurring bias within a mind to unexplained variation across professional judgments.
Where to start
Start with Thinking, Fast and Slow for Kahneman's broad account of judgment. Read Noise next for the organizational problem of different experts reaching different answers from the same case.
