About this ebook

Why do we so often make irrational decisions—even when we think we're being logical? In Thinking, Fast and Slow, Nobel Prize–winning psychologist Daniel Kahneman unpacks the two systems that govern the way we think: the fast, intuitive mind (System 1) and the slow, deliberate mind (System 2).

This chapter-by-chapter summary breaks down Kahneman’s groundbreaking insights into how these mental systems shape our judgments, biases, and decision-making—from investing and risk assessment to everyday choices and long-term planning. With clear explanations and real-world examples, this guide captures the essence of Kahneman’s research and its profound implications for psychology, business, and human behavior.

Whether you're curious about cognitive science or looking to make smarter, more mindful decisions, this summary offers a powerful shortcut to understanding one of the most influential books of our time.
