[] From the bestselling authors of Thinking, Fast and Slow; The Black Swan; and Stumbling on Happiness comes a cutting-edge exploration of the myst…eries of rational thought, decision-making, intuition, morality, willpower, problem-solving, prediction, forecasting, unconscious behavior, and beyond. Edited by John Brockman, publisher of Edge Foundation ('The world's smartest website'--The Guardian), THINKING presents original ideas by today's leading psychologists, neuroscientists, and philosophers who are radically expanding our understanding of human thought. [] Daniel Kahneman on the power (and pitfalls) of human intuition and 'unconscious' thinking; Daniel Gilbert on desire, prediction, and why getting what we want doesn't always make us happy; Nassim Nicholas Taleb on the limitations of statistics in guiding decision-making; Vilayanur Ramachandran on the scientific underpinnings of human nature; Simon Baron-Cohen on the startling effects of testosterone on the brain; Daniel C. Dennett on decoding the architecture of the 'normal' human mind; Sarah-Jayne Blakemore on mental disorders and the crucial developmental phase of adolescence; Jonathan Haidt, Sam Harris, and Roy Baumeister on the science of morality, ethics, and the emerging synthesis of evolutionary and biological thinking; Gerd Gigerenzer on rationality and what informs our choices."
