It reveals, in 99 short chapters, the most common errors of judgment, and how to avoid them. Simple, clear and always surprising, this indispensable book will change the way you think and transform your decision-making-work, at home, every day. But by knowing what they are and how to spot them, we can avoid them and make better choices-whether dealing with a personal problem or a business negotiation trying to save money or make money working out what we do or don't want in life: and how best to get it. These are examples of cognitive biases, simple errors we all make in our day-to-day thinking.
