Daniel Kahneman Book order (chronological)

Stel je voor dat twee artsen in dezelfde stad verschillende diagnoses stellen over dezelfde patiënten. Dat twee rechters aan hetzelfde hof verschillende straffen geven aan mensen die hetzelfde misdrijf hebben gepleegd. Dat wanneer een bedrijf klachten van klanten behandelt, de uitkomst afhangt van wie de betreffende klacht afhandelt. Stel je nu voor dat deze dokter, rechter of klachtenmedewerker zélf verschillende beslissingen neemt, afhankelijk van het tijdstip van de dag. Dit zijn voorbeelden van ruis: variabiliteit in oordelen die identiek zouden moeten zijn. In RUIS laten Daniel Kahneman, Cass R. Sunstein en Olivier Sibony zien hoe ruis aanzienlijk bijdraagt aan beoordelingsfouten op velerlei gebieden, waaronder geneeskunde, rechtspraak, economische voorspellingen, gedrag van de politie, voedselveiligheid, veiligheidscontroles op luchthavens, bedrijfsstrategie en sollicitatiecommissies. En hoewel ruis overal te vinden is waar mensen beslissingen nemen, zijn personen en organisaties zich gewoonlijk niet bewust van de rol van toeval in hun beoordelingen en in hun handelen. Op basis van de nieuwste bevindingen in de psychologie en gedragseconomie - én met hetzelfde aanstekelijke enthousiasme als in de bestsellers Thinking, Fast and Slow en Nudge - leggen Kahneman, Sibony en Sunstein in RUIS uit hoe en waarom mensen zo vatbaar zijn voor ruis bij het nemen van beslissingen, en wat we eraan kunnen doen.

From the multi-million copy bestselling author of Thinking Fast and Slow Daniel Kahneman, the co-author of the million-copy bestseller Nudge Cass Sunstein, and the eminent professor and writer on strategic thinking Olivier Sibony, a new book about how to make better decisions. We make thousands of decisions every day, from minute choices we don't even know we're making up to great, agonising deliberations. But when every decision we make is life-changing, the way we reach them matters. And for every decision, there is noise. This book teaches us how to understand all the extraneous factors that impact and bias our decision-making - and how to combat them and improve our thinking. Filled with new science, fascinating case studies and revealing practical examples, the skills this book teaches can be readily used by private or public institutions, by schools, hospitals, businesses, judges and in our everyday lives.

 The contemporary rabbi is influenced by the modern rabbinic establishments throughout the world, including the rabbinate in Israel. The rabbinate's monopoly on opinions and interpretations prevents rabbis from expressing their individual positions out of fear of delegitimization. The current structure gives the public a negative impression of the rabbinic establishment. The Importance of the Community Rabbi strives to describe and delineate key requirements for a good rabbi, i.e., one who can provide socially acceptable halachic solutions within the parameters of Orthodox thinking. Rabbi Sperber elucidates the halachic techniques and mechanisms that may be used toward this goal. These are further illustrated with stories from rabbinic literature and examples from various responsa.

Some of the world's smartest people explain stupidity, among them: Daniel Kahneman, Dan Ariely, Alison Gopnick, Howard Gardner, Antonio Damasio, Aaron James and Ryan Holiday

With Instaread Summaries, you can get the summary of a book in 30 minutes or less. We read every chapter, summarize and analyze it for your convenience. This is an Instaread Summary of Thinking, Fast and Slow by Daniel Kahneman. Below is a preview of the earlier sections of the summary: In this book, Daniel Kahneman aims to identify and understand errors of judgment and choice, providing a richer vocabulary to discuss these issues. Collaborating with Amos Tversky, they researched intuitive statistics and realized their own intuitions were flawed. Their subjective judgments were biased, leading them to accept research findings based on insufficient evidence and to gather too few observations in their studies. They sought to determine if other researchers faced similar challenges. Their findings revealed that participants often ignored relevant statistical facts, relying instead on resemblance as a heuristic to simplify complex judgments. This reliance led to predictable biases in their predictions. They discovered that people assess the importance of issues based on how easily they can recall them, largely influenced by media coverage. Kahneman offers insights into how the mind operates, highlighting the distinctions between fast (intuitive) and slow (deliberate) thinking. He emphasizes a common limitation: an excessive confidence in what individuals believe they know.

Psychologist Daniel Kahneman reveals the truth about our intuitions and rationality to teach us how to better our lives. He explores the fascinating flaws and marvels of human behaviour and reveals to us the common errors in people's beliefs.

Aký rozdiel je medzi prirodzeným (intuitívnym) a formálno-logickým usudzovaním? Sú všetky logické chyby zlé? Aké postupy (heuristiky) používa intuitívne usudzovanie? Prečo sú hybnou silou rozvoja intelektu sociálne vzťahy? Aké komunikačné riziká sú spojené s informáciami získanými prostredníctvom svedectva? Na základe čoho vieme odhadnúť, čo sa deje v mysli iného? Prečo sa etnické klasifikácie zásadne líšia od iných sociálnych klasifikácií, napríklad profesijných či športových? Práve na tieto otázky hľadajú odpovede autori knihy Sociálna inteligencia. Prvú časť knihy tvoria preklady prác renomovaných zahraničných autorov (D. Kahneman, G. Gigerenzer, N. Humphrey a D. Sperber). Druhá časť knihy obsahuje príspevky domácich autorov (J. Bašnáková, M. Filko, M. Kanovský, V. Kvasnička, E. Pauková, J. Pospíchal a J. Rybár). Sme presvedčení, že kniha môže pomôcť vedeckým pracovníkom a študentom počítačovej vedy, psychológie, antropológie, ekonómie a ďalších prírodných a sociálnych vied zorientovať sa v danej oblasti. Dúfame, že poslúži aj všetkým, ktorí sa chcú bližšie oboznámiť so súvislosťami medzi intuitívnym usudzovaním a sociálnou inteligenciou.

Judgment pervades human experience. Do I have a strong enough case to go to trial? Will the Fed change interest rates? Can I trust this person? This book examines how people answer such questions. How do people cope with the complexities of the world economy, the uncertain behavior of friends and adversaries, or their own changing tastes and personalities? When are people's judgments prone to bias, and what is responsible for their biases? This book compiles psychologists' best attempts to answer these important questions.

Choices, Values, and Frames presents an empirical and theoretical challenge to classical utility theory, offering prospect theory as an alternative framework. Extensions and applications to diverse economic phenomena and to studies of consumer behavior are discussed. The book also elaborates on framing effects and other demonstrations that preferences are constructed in context, and it develops new approaches to the standard view of choice-based utility. As with the classic 1982 volume, Judgment Under Uncertainty, this volume is comprised of papers published in diverse academic journals. The editors have written several new chapters and a preface to provide a context for the work.
