Invested time in something that, in hindsight, just wasn't worth it?
Paid too much in an eBay auction?
Continued to do something you knew was bad for you?
Sold stocks too late, or too early?
Taken credit for success, but blamed failure on external circumstances?
Backed the wrong horse?
These are examples of what the author calls cognitive biases, simple errors all of us make in day-to-day thinking. But by knowing what they are and how to identify them, we can avoid them and make better choices: whether in dealing with personal problems or business negotiations, trying to save money or earn profits, or merely working out what we really want in life—and strategizing the best way to get it.
Already an international bestseller, The Art of Thinking Clearly distills cutting-edge research from behavioral economics, psychology, and neuroscience into a clever, practical guide for anyone who's ever wanted to be wiser and make better decisions. A novelist, thinker, and entrepreneur, Rolf Dobelli deftly shows that in order to lead happier, more prosperous lives, we don't need extra cunning, new ideas, shiny gadgets, or more frantic hyperactivity—all we need is less irrationality.
Simple, clear, and always surprising, this indispensable book will change the way you think and transform your decision making—at work, at home, every day. From why you shouldn't accept a free drink to why you should walk out of a movie you don't like, from why it's so hard to predict the future to why you shouldn't watch the news, The Art of Thinking Clearly helps solve the puzzle of human reasoning.
Rolf Dobelli is a bestselling writer and entrepreneur. He is the founder of Zurich.Minds, a community of some of the world's most famed and distinguished thinkers, scientists, artists, and entrepreneurs, and a cofounder of getAbstract, the world's largest publisher of compressed knowledge.A novelist, sailor, and pilot, he lives in Lucerne, Switzerland.

最近一直在思考有关思考的问题，也就是所谓的批判性思维。最大的收获是理清了思考与语言的关系。这本书是第一本原版英文书，虽然走马观花的看了，但是收获满满，很多网络流传的思考文章大都能从种子那个找到。

作者竟然写了一本书，来进一步阐释最后一个建议：不要读新闻了！

算是一个“接地气”谬误的集合，例子更生活化。

只在油管听了一些。德文原著关于享乐主义那章结尾提倡“做自己爱做的事，哪怕涉及资金投入”，并抛出以下极具偏见及引导性的言论：“对于女人，隆胸具有长期的幸福效应；对于男人，则是升职”。中文版译者朱刘华应该是男的，对该内容作了保留。而该英文版译者Nicky Griffinn，将这句本不该存在的话整句删除，Bravo!
