Publisher's summary
The unabridged, downloadable audiobook edition of Thinking, Fast and Slow, Daniel Kahneman's pioneering work that tackles questions of intuition and rationality. Read by the actor Patrick Egan.
Daniel Kahneman, recipient of the Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences for his seminal work in psychology challenging the rational model of judgment and decision making, is one of the world's most important thinkers. His ideas have had a profound impact on many fields - including business, medicine, and politics - but until now, he has never brought together his many years of research in one book.
In Thinking, Fast and Slow, Kahneman takes us on a groundbreaking tour of the mind and explains the two systems that drive the way we think and make choices. One system is fast, intuitive, and emotional; the other is slower, more deliberative, and more logical. Kahneman exposes the extraordinary capabilities-and also the faults and biases-of fast thinking, and reveals the pervasive influence of intuitive impressions on our thoughts and behaviour. The importance of properly framing risks, the effects of cognitive biases on how we view others, the dangers of prediction, the right ways to develop skills, the pros and cons of fear and optimism, the difference between our experience and memory of events, the real components of happiness-each of these can be understood only by knowing how the two systems work together to shape our judgments and decisions.
Drawing on a lifetime's experimental experience, Kahneman reveals where we can and cannot trust our intuitions and how we can tap into the benefits of slow thinking. He offers practical and enlightening insights into how choices are made in both our professional and our personal lives-and how we can use different techniques to guard against the mental glitches that often get us into trouble. Thinking, Fast and Slow will transform the way you take decisions and experience the world.

I'm happy that I'm finished.
I'm happy that I read that. I missed some parts sleeping on tube, sometimes didn't pay attention at all, but overall, it was good experience.
It would be great if audible can show related pictures on screen, e.g. when there is a math problem, or a chart to be shown.

Single most important book of my life.
When I started reading this book a few months back, I wasn't able to comprehend much of it. I then bought it's physical book and read it with Audible narration. Was a bit hard to still comprehend it in the start but my brain soon caught up and I was reading at full speed with great comprehension. It's not that the book was hard, it's that my mindset was on a lower level, had to jump-up my mind's game to the level of this book to understand it and I must say, it's one book that changed my perspective about so many things that I used to do wrong. I know where my brain is making intuitive faults now and how to come over them.

Life changing
Excellent book. Always puts me to sleep at night when I can't sleep. If the contents alone would not do it I think the narrator goes an extra mile to make the wake to asleep time quick.
