'Thinking, Fast and Slow’ is an International Bestseller authored by the eminent economist and psychologist Daniel Kahneman. The book takes the readers on a fascinating journey by dissecting the mind and goes on to explain two distinct systems that affect our way of thinking and making choices. Of these two systems, one is intuitive, emotional yet fast while the other one is more logical and deliberative.
In this book, Kahneman exposes certain extraordinary capabilities of fast thinking along with its flaws and biases and explains how it shape a person’s behavior and thoughts. In simple yet engaging words, the book debates about the importance of taking risks, the proper ways to skills development, the dangers of prediction, cognitive biases and their effects, people how views of others, and the real component of happiness.
The author also explains how the two systems should be understood properly to make proper and correct decisions concerning professional and personal growth that are mostly in conflict with each other.
