Questo libro, opera dello psicologo inglese Stuart Sutherland 1927 1998 venne pubblicato nel 1992, ed un peccato che sia rimasto senza traduzione in italiano fino al 2010 Si tratta di un opera divulgativa seria e di livello abbastanza alto ma comunque sempre ben leggibile che, come dice il titolo, dimostra con una serie impressionante di esempi alcuni dei quali divertenti che l essere umano molto pi irrazionale di quello che si pensa E le conseguenze possono essere gravi o addirittura catastrofi [...]

Posted on my blog.Background I was given this book by a friend on Christmas, and I started reading it soon afterward, but unfortunately had to stop for a couple of months and just recently finished it This is unfortunate, since I recall a lot of things I thought about the book while I was reading it, but didn t mark any of the pages for quoting Oh well.Review This book in a nutshell humans can be very irrational at times The book goes on to try to explore, explain and offer solutions to the vari [...]

This is a catalogue of wrong thinking inconsistency, misinterpretation, false inferences, distortion, overconfidence, conforming to the general opinion, obeying authoritative figures and making bad bets We form instant impressions and then only look for the evidence that will support our view, we suffer from availability error, meaning that we give weight to the dramatic and memorable, or the most recent, and ignore the less exciting evidence, and after reading the chapter on reward and punishm [...]

This book shows a number of psychological biases during human assessment of reality which, the author claims, moves us away from taken optimal decisions It does so by means of captivating and many times funny examples, mainly drawn from psychological experiments, but also from interesting historical events and common behavior.The author is competent in explaining each type of irrational behavior, but the book lacks a global perspective The instances of irrational behavior introduced in the book [...]

Just enjoyed, with qualifications, Stuart Sutherland s Irrationality, which I d had sitting on my wishlist for ages and irrationally not got around to buying It s a very enjoyable and robust exhortation to increase the rigour of our thinking, while acknowledging all the many reasons why that s extremely difficult His enthusiasm for actuarial methods of decisionmaking is inspiring in some cases, but unconvincing in others, particularly the ones where he s forced to admit that in quite a few circu [...]

I didn t realize this is a reprint of a work that is 20 years old, but it s still quite relevant Just a little harder to get ahold of Like most psychology books written by academics, this reads like a textbook so it s a bit of work to get through Still, Sutherland injects a lot wit into his writing than most, such as mentioning students who had ten grandparents with a distressing mortality rate The material is quite good as a survey of various human tendencies to make irrational decisions The p [...]

I m soooooo bored with this Reads like a GCSE social psychology text book.At times like this I really wish I was so OCD that I have to finish every book I start This one is never ending.I ve abandoned it Really dated, and really, really boring It now has the honour of being the first ever book I ve started but not finished, and has annoyed me further by making me create a new abandoned shelf on , which clutters things up.

agree with one point don t keep reading not to waste your money, at the end money won t be the only thing wasted one book telling you what to do as if you did t have a brain, irrationality comes from here.

This book is only actually interesting if you think people act rationally than, say, 5% of the time Otherwise it is just a book of commonplaces backed up by a lot of studies and anecdotes you ve already heard about before.

Good companion to Kahneman s Thinking, Fast and Slow While not much new information for me , it was a good compilation, providing a nice structure and linking items to each other.

Ancient, published in 1992, but still interesting if not entertaining, even if much of its contents has now been rehashed in later works, though still poignantly relevant for our extensive modern online discourse, where reason is often not the primary concern.Sutherland spends roughly half the book explaining the different types of irrationality and then uses the remainder to highlight how these work in practice.Judging by the first thing that comes to mind is called the availability error.Relat [...]

Review from darrengoossens.wordpress 2017 01 18 irrationality the enemy within by stuart sutherland too true Penguin, 1994, 357 pages.Well This book is replete with summaries of studies that on the whole show that we are creatures of habit, instinct and fear than thought and reason We suffer from the illusion of control We make emotional decisions and then convince ourselves they were carefully reasoned We avoid data that might prove us wrong, even when being proved wrong is the best thing that [...]

The book summarizes studies done by others in the field in a fairly concise package Problem is, if you read books by Kahneman, Sunstein, Thaler, Milgram, etc there s nothing new for you to learn Probably should be considered an intro to those books and then you can delve further into whichever piques your interest.

This book was first published in 1992, but don t let that put you off the topics are relevant today than ever before, particularly given the way we appear to be sliding head first into another age of unreason One example would be the chapter on stereotypes very appropriate in this post 9 11 world, showing the development of prejudice towards out groups and detailing 9 reasons why they occur and shouldn t There are stacks of case studies in the book well over a hundred, described in great detail [...]

Academic attempts to hit the trade market have made for the creation of a capacious graveyard down the years Everyone recalls the successes without taking into account that they form way less than 1% of the attempts This is one of the modest triumphs an at times fascinating exploration of why people behave irrationally.For most of the book, Sutherland is a master with the juicy anecdote, although the book sags in the middle as he abandons real world examples in favour of that boring, over famili [...]

Clearly something of a classic, this book has been described as a thinking man s self help guide by Ben Goldacre It s interesting to get an expert scholarly but not heavy view on the various and many ways in which the human brain has irrational tendencies Much of what is discussed should be common sense e.g people tend to ignore evidence that doesn t fit their beliefes but it s backed up with discussions of psychology experiments that have been replicated and offer some proof.Of course, one can [...]

A very good book examining the irrational decisions people make It also provides methods on how best to make a rational decision and not fall into the common traps Learning statistics and probability theory are a start.I did find it a little boring to read at times The writing style is a little bland and technical in nature Also, one thing the book only touched on was why people are irrational Is it because of the way the brain works, or is it because of our schooling, society norms or culture F [...]

This is the first pop science book on rationality I ever read, and it made a great impression on me Of course, this is now than twenty years old the first edition dates from 1992 , and probably nowadays there are many eqivalent books, but this one gives a good overview of many common pitfalls in decision making, illustrating many cognitive biases from selective evidence, to overconfidence and ignoring or misinterpreting evidence So you wont get exposure to the latest developments on decision ma [...]

Human beings are not nearly as reasonable as we think we are Intuition, the failure to understand how probabilities work, and the curious phenomenon of availability universalizing the most recent experience we can remember or alternatively the first experience, depending on whether you perceive later information as replacing or augmenting the original all conspire to help us survive, but not to be reasonable.Sutherland has written a satisfying little book that opens the door to being slightly le [...]

The most readable and well written popular level book about the irrationality of humans that I have discovered I am not a fan of the first chapter, but this is possibly because I ve read a lot of the literature on irrational behaviour and the philosophy of it, and I feel he is a little inaccurate Further, the morals at the end of each chapter could be a little less whimsical and a little useful The entirety of the rest of the book is excellent however, and the discussion especially focused on [...]

This book was a extensive list of the ways in which humans are irrational Although the advice at the end of each chapter on how to avoid these irrationality were almost simply don t be irrational , ie if humans tend to over count X in importance the advice would be don t over count X , the book was helpful While the book was written 21 years ago, it was very helpful and insightful and the editor made sure to comment on things that had changed in a footnote but it was rarely needed The book was e [...]

Stuart has, in layman term explained some very widely mis oriented confused belief we keep in our mind Some of them are so common and obvious, we are doing it every moment, not even realizing it.The best part of this book is a moral section at the end of each chapter A very useful part, due to the vastness of statistical data and experiment done on the topic of irrationality, it is very obvious that during the whole read we forget the important take away Stuart does a great work by providing few [...]
