Thinking, Fast and Slow is a best-selling[1] 2011 book by Nobel Memorial Prize in Economics winner Daniel Kahneman which summarizes research that he conducted over decades, often in collaboration with Amos Tversky.[2][3] It covers all three phases of his career: his early days working on cognitive biases, his work on prospect theory, and his later work on happiness.
The book's central thesis is a dichotomy between two modes of
thought: "System 1" is fast, instinctive and emotional; "System 2" is
slower, more deliberative, and more logical. The book delineates
cognitive biases associated with each type of thinking, starting with
Kahneman's own research on loss aversion. From framing choices
to people's tendency to substitute an easy-to-answer question for one
that is harder, the book highlights several decades of academic research
to suggest that people place too much confidence in human judgement.
