The Undoing Project

A Friendship That Changed the World

De: Michael Lewis

Narrado por: Dennis Boutsikaris

Daniel Kahneman and Amos Tversky met in war-torn 1960s Israel. Both were gifted young psychology professors: Kahneman a rootless son of Holocaust survivors who saw the world as a problem to be solved, Tversky a voluble, instinctual blur of energy.

In this breathtaking new audiobook, Michael Lewis tells the extraordinary story of a relationship that became a shared mind: one which created the field of behavioural economics, revolutionising everything from Big Data to medicine, from how we are governed to how we spend, from high finance to football.

Kahneman and Tversky, shows Michael Lewis, helped shape the world in which we now live - and may well have changed, for good, humankind's view of its own mind.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.

An amazing story

Loved the story. Another masterpiece by Michael Lewis. Thank you for telling this amazing story.

insightful

I listened to Kahneman books and a few others on the subject in the last three years. but knowing about how such revolutionary ideas were birth was very insightful, I was able to understand nuances that were hidden from a non psychology literate, like me.

Resurrection

Let's hope Hollywood offers a deserving and just resurrection of Amos Tversky when it picks up yet another superb work from Michael Lewis.

Fascinating

With every junction a story that unpeels just a smige, but enough to understand how a particular finding came to be. Packed full of stories and people that I now feel compelled to research further and follow.

Helps us think about thinking very differently

Thank you Michael Lewis for making the eternal wisdom of this partnership extremely accessible, memorable and enjoyable to experience.
