The undoing project
What I’ve been reading
(2016-12-12)
1. Michael Lewis, The Undoing Project: A Friendship that Changed Our Minds . A super-fun but oddly uneven biography of Kahneman and Tversky, a meditation on the nature of collaboration, and a history of the early stages of behavioral economics (economics?) and for that matter a history of Israel in some of its early decades. There are cameos from Rapaport, Thaler, Gigerenzer, and others. Why did the Israelis take so readily to the idea of an economic psychology, compared to the Anglos?
