George A. Akerlof and Richel E. Kranton support this challenge by providing two economic analysis models that include identity as an important variable. While Kahneman focuses primarily on individuals’ inability to make decisions based on profit-determined utility values, Akerlof and Kranton

THINKING, FAST and SLOW- Book Project Thinking, fast and slow written by an empirical researcher and psychologist, Daniel Kahneman, The book tells us how we can afford to think while we’re not even paying attention. It offers us the paths to better understanding ourselves, how to think automatically and common, instead of difficult and rare.

This distinctive book called, “Thinking, Fast and Slow” by Daniel Kahneman, is one of very few exquisite readings I’ve completed so far. Daniel Kahneman is a psychologist in Princeton University, and due to his research, he won a Nobel Prize in 2002 in economics. In the beginning of his book, he speaks of our cognitive System 1 and System 2 ways of thinking. System 1 generates feelings, impressions, and memory. It is very instinctive, automatic, and is considered quick thinking. System 2 on the other

The human rationality is also often plagued by hindsight bias, the anchoring effect, the bandwagon effect, negativity bias, amidst a whole list of cognitive biases, best illustrated in Daniel Kahneman’s Thinking Fast & Slow. If we could design a machine that can make decisions without the fallibility of human rationality, would it then be a better idea to let the machines make decisions on our behalf, and save us from the mistakes of our minds?

The Easy Decision of Choosing a President In Thinking, Fast and Slow, Daniel Kahneman goes to great lengths to explain the complex ways that humans think in the most simple and understandable fashion. Just as Kahneman’s title alludes, each person thinks in two distinct styles, one style is an automatic manner of thinking and the other is effortful, which he refers to as System 1 and System 2 throughout the book.

I read the international bestseller “Thinking, Fast and Slow” of Daniel Kahneman (Winner of the Nobel Prize) over the last 3-4 weeks. I think it is a very interesting book and it is describing very critically the human brain and mind, which gave me many insights into decision-making and errors we are doing automatically without noticing it every day. He is very often talking about "System 1" and "System 2". System 1 is fast; it's intuitive, associative, metaphorical, automatic, impressionistic

An Analysis on Intuition: Cognitive Bias or a Fast Problem-Solving Cognition How many times have we heard the saying “follow your heart” or people following their “guts” when making a decision? Soldiers in time of war are successfully recorded to use their instincts or “guts”, while engaged in life-threatening situations, in order to minimize life loss. A mom, “instinctively” knows when her child is feeling discomfort, without much need for words. Consecutively, expert chess players can predict how

Critique of Thinking Fast and Slow After reading summaries, reviews, and excerpts from the 27 books we were given a list of to choose from, I decided to go with Thinking, Fast and Slow by Daniel Kahneman.
