About this book:
  • Research in psychology has revealed that our decisions are disrupted by an array of biases and irrationalities: We're overconfident. We seek out information that supports us and downplay information that doesn't. We get distracted by short-term emotions. When it comes to making choices, it seems, our brains are flawed instruments. Unfortunately, merely being aware of these shortcomings doesn't fix the problem, any more than knowing that we are nearsighted helps us to see. The real question is: How can we do better?

The untrained person is predictably horrible at performing Risk Decisions. Fortunately, at $1.99, it's a pretty low risk.

You don't need it and never will. I read the book (not really).

Good reviews on good reads. Wish it had a cheap audio narration add on. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/15798078

What's a good e-reader these days that doesn't cost $250?
I scratched my Kindle paperwhite screen but It lasted me a good 8+ years, I just wish it had a page turn button.

This thread is for a book regarding making good decisions. Not ADHD.
