    ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
    “Thinking, Fast and Slow” by Daniel Kahneman explores the two systems of thinking that drive human decisions: System 1, which is fast, automatic, and intuitive, and System 2, which is slow, deliberate, and logical. Kahneman delves into the cognitive biases and heuristics that influence our judgments, often leading us to make irrational choices. He examines how these mental shortcuts affect decision-making in various areas, including economics, policy, and everyday life. Through this exploration, Kahneman reveals the complexities of human behavior and the challenges of making decisions in an unpredictable and uncertain world.
