   Just started reading my copy last week. I am enjoying it, but one must read it deliberately :-) to be able to enjoy it...thats system II iI guess
   Reminds be of Nudge by Thaler and Sunstein...........curious to know if they have any demonstrations on how these ideas have any positive impact on business decisions and results
   Great weekend

      Darn good question. Here you go:
      
      Daniel Kahneman is also the co-oauthor of Heuristics and Biases: The Psychology of Intuitive Judgment, written with Thomas Gilovich, and of Choices, Values and Frames, and Judgment Under Uncertainty: Heuristics and Biases,both written with Amos Tversky, as well as Well-Being: Foundations of Hedonic Psychology, written with Ed Diener. Working with Diener and John Helliwell, Kahneman also co-authored International Differences in Well-Being.
      
      Hope that's helpful. Thanks for your comment. E. Rauzin, managing editor, getAbstract

   While the concepts of the book are intriguing, something about the summary makes me feel as though the important bits of the book were either left out or recapped in such a way that I find the summary not as good as others I have read on getabstract.com.
