Unlock your mind. From the bestselling authors of Thinking, Fast
and Slow; The Black Swan; and Stumbling
on Happiness comes a cutting-edge exploration of the mysteries
of rational thought, decision-making, intuition, morality, willpower,
problem-solving, prediction, forecasting, unconscious behavior, and beyond.
Edited by John Brockman, publisher of Edge.org ("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.
Contributors include:
- 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
