HTML:<p>Have you ever . . .</p> <ul> <li>Invested time in something that, in hindsight, just wasn't worth it?</li> <li>Paid too much in an eBay auction?</li> <li>Continued to do something you knew was bad for you?</li> <li>Sold stocks too late, or too early?</li> <li>Taken credit for success, but blamed failure on external circumstances?</li> <li>Backed the wrong horse?</li> </ul> <p>These are examples of what the author calls cognitive biases, simple errors all of us make in day-to-day thinking. But by knowing what they are and how to identify them, we can avoid them and make better choices: whether in dealing with personal problems or business negotiations, trying to save money or earn profits, or merely working out what we really want in life--and strategizing the best way to get it.</p> <p>Already an international bestseller, <em>The Art of Thinking Clearly</em> distills cutting-edge research from behavioral economics, psychology, and neuroscience into a clever, practical guide for anyone who's ever wanted to be wiser and make better decisions. A novelist, thinker, and entrepreneur, Rolf Dobelli deftly shows that in order to lead happier, more prosperous lives, we don't need extra cunning, new ideas, shiny gadgets, or more frantic hyperactivity--all we need is less irrationality.</p> <p>Simple, clear, and always surprising, this indispensable book will change the way you think and transform your decision making--at work, at home, every day. From why you shouldn't accept a free drink to why you should walk out of a movie you don't like, from why it's so hard to predict the future to why you shouldn't watch the news, <em>The Art of Thinking Clearly</em> helps solve the puzzle of human reasoning.</p>.
