Thinking and Deciding, 4th Edition 4th Edition

by Jonathan Baron (Author)

Purchase options and add-ons

Beginning with its first edition and through subsequent editions, Thinking and Deciding has established itself as the required text and important reference work for students and scholars of human cognition and rationality. In this, the fourth edition, Jonathan Baron retains the comprehensive attention to the key questions addressed in the previous editions – How should we think? What, if anything, keeps us from thinking that way? How can we improve our thinking and decision making? – and his expanded treatment of topics such as risk, utilitarianism, Baye's theorem, and moral thinking. With the student in mind, the fourth edition emphasizes the development of an understanding of the fundamental concepts in judgment and decision making. This book is essential reading for students and scholars in judgment and decision making and related fields, including psychology, economics, law, medicine, and business.

Review

“… An impressively broad and serious guide to the psychology of thinking and deciding.” Choice

“This volume represents an impressive textbook that is worthy of consideration in courses on thinking and decision making. … Well written and well produced.” – Contemporary Psychology

“Baron has taken on the task of examining in detail the full range and diversity of psychological research which helps him and us to understand the nature of thinking as he sees it, and to explore its application to teaching. It is a heroic effort, and thoroughly recommended.” Times Higher Education Supplement

“This magisterial book ... lays out the issues in exemplary fashion ... . This book is as balanced and clear as one is likely to find. It is an outstanding introduction to and summary of the psychology of decision making and should be widely read.” Medical Decision Making
