Thinking Fast and Slow Book
Thinking Fast and Slow Book is a 2011 popular science book by psychologist Daniel Kahneman. The book’s main thesis is a differentiation between two modes of thought: “System 1” is fast, instinctive and emotional; “System 2” is slower, more deliberative, and more logical.
Daniel Kahneman’s thinking in Thinking Fast And Slow reminds a bit of Nassim Nicholas Taleb’s Antifragile. Very scientific, all backed up with math and facts, yet simple to understand. Beginning with Kahneman’s own study on loss aversion, the book distinguishes between rational and non-rational incentives or triggers linked with each type of thought process, and how they complement each other.
