A major New York Times bestseller with more than 2.6 million copies sold, Thinking, Fast and Slow is a landmark book on how the human mind works.
Nobel Prize–winning psychologist Daniel Kahneman explains the two systems that shape the way we think and make decisions. System 1 is fast, intuitive, and emotional, while System 2 is slower, more deliberate, and more logical.
Through engaging examples and decades of research, Kahneman shows how these two systems influence our judgments in everyday life—from financial decisions and business strategies to personal choices and risk-taking.
The book also reveals how common cognitive biases and mental shortcuts can lead to errors in thinking, and how understanding them can help us make better decisions.
Insightful and widely influential, Thinking, Fast and Slow has become a modern classic in psychology, behavioural economics, and decision-making.
