Micheal Lewis, who you may know as the author of the books "Moneyball" and "The Big Short" (which both incidentally also have been adapted to movies) has written a new book about two prominent researchers in the field of Cognitive Psychology: Daniel Kahneman, a Nobel-prize winner who wrote the bestseller "Thinking Fast and Slow", and Amos Tversky, who did some ground-breaking work in the field as well. This article provides a short biography of these two extraordinary gentlemen, whose friendship has lifted cognitive science to a new level. It also offers a first impression of the book, and states it is definitely worth a read.
A new book by the author of “Moneyball” shows how, together, the psychologists Amos Tversky and Daniel Kahneman made the world a better place.
