A world-class thinker counts the ways-100 in all-in which humans behave irrationally, showing us what we can do to recognize and minimize these thinking errors for better decisions and a better life Despite the best of intentions, humans are notoriously bad-that is, irrational-when it comes to making decisions and assessing risks and tradeoffs.

Cognitive errors are systematic deviances from rationality, from optimized, logical, rational thinking and behavior. We make these errors all the time, in all ... |

Вдъхновяващи сентенции за живота, любовта и семейството. Мнозина са чували, а нищо чудно и да са използвали, духовитото въведение към китайска мъдрост: "Конфуций казва...".
