Thinking, Fast and Slow
Thinking, Fast and Slow by Daniel Kahneman is a landmark psychology book that explores the two systems of thought that drive how we make choices, judge situations, and perceive the world around us.
Discussed“If you read Kahneman with System One and System Two, it's very clear that you want to use your System Two, your deliberative reasoning thinking, to decide your diet before you go to the supermarket rather than just impulse buying random things that come in front of you because you always shop hungry or something like that.”
