The psychologist Daniel Kahneman — a Nobel laureate and the author of Thinking, Fast and Slow — recently died at age 90. Along with his collaborator Amos Tversky, he changed how we all think about decision-making. The journalist Michael Lewis told the Kahneman-Tversky story in a 2016 book called The Undoing Project. In this episode, Lewis explains why they had such a profound influence. <ul><li>SOURCE:<ul><li><a href="http://michaellewiswrites.com/index.html#">Michael Lewis</a>, writer.</li></ul></li></ul> <ul><li>RESOURCES:<ul><li><a href="https://amzn.to/3JhDK0H">The Undoing Project</a>, by Michael Lewis (2016).</li><li><a href="https://amzn.to/4autG0j">Thinking, Fast and Slow</a>, by Daniel Kahneman (2011).</li><li><a href="https://amzn.to/3vPCm2d">The Big Short: Inside the Doomsday Machine</a>, by Michael Lewis (2010).</li><li><a href="https://amzn.to/3VSgXjD">Nudge: Improving Decisions About Health, Wealth, and Happiness</a>, by Richard Thaler and Cass Sunstein (2009).</li><li><a href="https://amzn.to/3Ue5nOt">Moneyball: The Art of Winning an Unfair Game</a>, by Michael Lewis (2004).</li><li>“<a href="https://newrepublic.com/article/61123/whos-first">Who’s On First</a>,” by Richard Thaler and Cass Sunstein (New Republic, 2003).</li><li>“<a href="http://psych.hanover.edu/classes/cognition/papers/tversky81.pdf">The Framing of Decisions and the Psychology of Choice</a>,” by Daniel Kahneman and Amos Tversky (Science, 1981).</li><li>“<a href="https://www.princeton.edu/~kahneman/docs/Publications/prospect_theory.pdf">Prospect Theory: An Analysis of Decision Under Risk</a>,” by Daniel Kahneman and Amos Tversky (Econometrica, 1979).</li><li>“<a href="http://psiexp.ss.uci.edu/research/teaching/Tversky_Kahneman_1974.pdf">Judgment under Uncertainty: Heuristics and Biases</a>,” by Daniel Kahneman and Amos Tversky (Science, 1974).</li><li>“<a href="http://datacolada.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/Kahneman-Tversky-1972.pdf">Subjective Probability: A Judgment of Representativeness</a>,” by Daniel Kahneman and Amos Tversky (Cognitive Psychology, 1972).</li></ul></li></ul> <ul><li>EXTRAS:<ul><li>"<a href="https://freakonomics.com/podcast/remembering-daniel-kahneman/">Remembering Daniel Kahneman</a>," by People I (Mostly) Admire (2024).</li><li>"<a href="https://freakonomics.com/podcast/why-are-people-so-mad-at-michael-lewis/">Why Are People So Mad at Michael Lewis?</a>" by Freakonomics Radio (2023).</li><li>"<a href="https://freakonomics.com/podcast/did-michael-lewis-just-get-lucky-with-moneyball/">Did Michael Lewis Just Get Lucky with 'Moneyball'?</a>" by Freakonomics Radio (2022).</li></ul></li></ul>
