According to Kahneman, there are two systems that influence how we think and decide: While System Two is slower, more deliberate, and more rational, System One is quick, intuitive, and emotive.
“Kahneman explains how the mind works in this groundbreaking book and offers enlightening and practical guidance on how decisions are made in both our personal and professional lives.”
The Book Guide® Editor
Kahneman examines how both mental systems work in order to reveal the remarkable powers, as well as the biases of quick thinking and the pervasive effect of intuitive perceptions on our decisions. By contrasting the two-system view of the mind with the conventional concept of the rational economic agent, the author engages the reader in a lively discussion about how we think, demonstrating where we may trust our intuitions and how to take advantage of sluggish thinking.
