An eye-opening look into human thinking presented in readable English with useful examples and stories, this book is required reading for anybody who must make significant judgements.
Have you ever: • Dedicated time to an endeavour that, in retrospect, proved to be unworthy?
• Did you overpay at an eBay auction?
• Did you keep up a behaviour you knew was unhealthy for you?
• Did stocks sell too soon or too late?
• Acknowledged accomplishments but attributed shortcomings to other forces?
• Wrong horse backed?
These are instances of cognitive biases, which are straightforward mistakes we all commit on a daily basis. However, if we are aware of them and know how to recognise them, we can steer clear of them and make better decisions—whether we're negotiating a commercial transaction or handling a personal issue; attempting to save or earn money; or deciding what we want and need in life and the best way to get it.
This invaluable book, which is straightforward, uncomplicated, and consistently unexpected, will revolutionise your daily decision-making process at home. It covers the most frequent mistakes in judgement and how to prevent them in 99 condensed segments.
