A fascinating, practical guide to making better decisions with our
money, health and personal lives from Gerd Gigerenzer, the author
of Reckoning with Risk. Numbers don't lie - but they often mislead
us. From health risks to financial decisions, we often find it hard
to make decisions because the statistics have been presented to us
by 'experts' who misinterpret the data themselves. Here Gerd
Gigerenzer shows how we can all use simple rules to become
better-informed, risk-savvy citizens. 'Important, Gigerenzer draws
valuable lessons . . . his clear explanations will be a great help
to all' Omar Malik, Times Higher Education 'Gerd Gigerenzer argues
that when it comes to taking risks in life, we are often much
better off following our instincts than expert advice' Oliver
Burkeman, Guardian 'Things will only get better, he shows, when
specialists, particularly doctors and investment advisers, improve
on their appalling record of analysing and communicating risks in
their fields' Clive Cookson, Financial Times, Books of the Year
'Gigerenzer is brilliant' Steven Pinker Gerd Gigerenzer is Director
of the Center for Adaptive Behavior and Cognition at the Max Planck
Institute for Human Development in Berlin and former Professor of
Psychology at the University of Chicago. He is the author of
several books on heuristics and decision making, including
Reckoning with Risk.
