About This Book

This book explores the psychology of decision-making by comparing normative models of rationality with how people actually behave in uncertain environments. It examines the heuristics and cognitive biases that influence judgment across fields such as finance, medicine, and law. The text provides a comprehensive, non-technical introduction to the theories of choice and probability.
