Product Description
The first book to use the unexpected discoveries of neuroscience to help us make the best decisions.
Since Plato, philosophers have described the decision-making process as either rational or emotional: we carefully deliberate, or we blink and go with our gut. But as scientists break open the mind's black box with the latest tools of neuroscience, they re discovering that this is not how the mind works. Our best decisions are a finely tuned blend of both feeling and reason and the precise mix depends on the situation. When buying a house, for example, it s best to let our unconscious mull over the many variables. But when we re picking a stock, intuition often leads us astray. The trick is to determine when to use the different parts of the brain, and to do this, we need to think harder (and smarter) about how we think.
Jonah Lehrer arms us with the tools we need, drawing on cutting-edge research as well as the real-world experiences of a wide range of deciders from airplane pilots and hedge fund investors to serial killers and poker players.
Lehrer shows how people are taking advantage of the new science to make better television shows, win more football games, and improve military intelligence. His goal is to answer two questions that are of interest to just about anyone, from CEOs to firefighters: How does the human mind make decisions? And how can we make those decisions better?

国外的科普书都是如此的津津有味欲罢不能谁不想做小nerd ?
评分非常流畅和娱乐,唯一的缺点是太过显浅,例子大多我都知道,而且讲的比这本书还深,不过对于初学者来说是很好的选择
评分顿悟需要心无杂念。 如果一个人的多巴胺神经元内化经验形成一套对当前情况迅速做出反应的直觉,他就成了专家,情绪引导着我们的快速决定 。“锚定效应”。表扬孩子不能说“你很聪明” ,而是要说“你很努力”。理性的人能更好地调节情绪。容忍不确定性。
评分为什么大猩猩比专家高明
评分这个不错。让我好好地去想了想more is less。这个说法。
