Milan: Thinking, Fast and Slow by Daniel Kahneman is probably the most important book of the 21st century. There are so many things to learn from this book. Below I've listed the ones that stood out for me.
• People intuitively can't think in probabilities.
• Fast thinking (System 1) uses heuristics (mental short-cuts), intuition and perception/memory and the vast majority of our decisions are made using this systems.
• Slow thinking (System 2) is based on reason and deliberate thought.
• System 2, unless trained, will often inherently trust system 1
• People avoid cognitive effort (slow thinking) and rely on their intuition too much.
• Pain and pleasure drives mostly everything.
• Nothing in life is as important as you think it is when you are thinking about it.
• Intuition is nothing more than recognition (sometimes superior recognition).
• It is easier to recognize the mistakes of others than our own.
• We know ourselves much less than we think we do as we don’t know the majority of our thoughts which are in the subconscious.
• Our mood affects our subconscious thinking.
• System 2 is in-charge of detecting lies and...

Eamonn: This is a highly accessible book on a particularly important concept that might otherwise be challenging to read. The concepts discussed are clearly explained and their application well documented and described.
I would recommend this book to anyone who wishes to seriously engage in exploring how we make decisions, and how we at times do so very badly indeed!

Hots: Thoughtful, applicable, insightful, entertaining. I enjoyed dissecting the numerous thought experiments and studies for merit that I could apply to my everyday thinking.
System 1 and System 2 form the backbone of this book.
System 1 is impulsive, and provides heuristic and intuitive guesses and reactions to stimuli without prompting. It can't be turned off. Why You See Is All There Is (WYSIATI). But it's also responsible for remarkably well-tuned intuitions, fast information-processing, "muscle memory," pattern-matching, intensity matching, face & situation recognition, and much of what makes human minds human. Author Daniel Kahneman points out situations in which System 1 is scientifically poor, including statistics (like the difference between 0.01% and 0.001%), random events, weighting time & duration in retrospect.
System 2 is more calculated, requires devoted effort and concentration in rationalizing & making decisions. It assigns value to past events, keeps score, questions bias, and carries out more intensive, deliberate calculations involving more data. It's like fetching data from main memory, rather than relying on the...

John B. Robb: This is an invaluable book that every person who considers him/herself educated should read - even study. Indeed, it is a scandal that mastering the material in this book isn't considered an essential component of a high school education.
The author was awarded the Nobel in Economics for his work on what he calls decision theory, or the study of the actual workings of the typical human mind in the evaluation of choices, and the book itself presents the findings of many decades of psychological studies that expose the endemic fallacious thinking that we are all prone to, more or less. The lives of all of us could be improved by lessons learned from this book, not just individually, through self-education, but also on the large scale, if the large scale decision makers in this society in and out of government could be educated as well. In fact, it is largely because these large scale decision makers are no better than the rest of us in their ability to think straight and plan well, that society is as screwed up as it is, and that essentially all of its institutions are diseased and corrupt. The lesson there, however, is that decision making needs to be returned to the...
