![]() ![]() ![]() Thomas Gilovich’s How We Know What Isn’t So: the Fallibility of Human Reason in Everyday Life is the first I remember reading, and that was more than 20 years ago. And, again if you’re a reader of nonfiction and a browser of library shelves, you know these topics are popular and have been for a long time. So the subject of our thinking being off and certainty unwarranted runs through a lot of the author’s works. There would be theories about cognitive errors, experiments to test the theories, and then papers written and talks given.no one would watch it. If it were a television series, it would be sort of like Masters of Sex but without the sex. His The Undoing Project: a Friendship that Changed Our Minds probably isn’t going that route. The Big Short, The Blind Side, and Moneyball are three of his books (all good reads) that have been made into movies. If you’re a reader of nonfiction, there’s a good chance you’ve read something by Michael Lewis. ![]()
