Product Description
The first book to use the unexpected discoveries of neuroscience to help us make the best decisions.
Since Plato, philosophers have described the decision-making process as either rational or emotional: we carefully deliberate, or we blink and go with our gut. But as scientists break open the mind's black box with the latest tools of neuroscience, they re discovering that this is not how the mind works. Our best decisions are a finely tuned blend of both feeling and reason and the precise mix depends on the situation. When buying a house, for example, it s best to let our unconscious mull over the many variables. But when we re picking a stock, intuition often leads us astray. The trick is to determine when to use the different parts of the brain, and to do this, we need to think harder (and smarter) about how we think.
Jonah Lehrer arms us with the tools we need, drawing on cutting-edge research as well as the real-world experiences of a wide range of deciders from airplane pilots and hedge fund investors to serial killers and poker players.
Lehrer shows how people are taking advantage of the new science to make better television shows, win more football games, and improve military intelligence. His goal is to answer two questions that are of interest to just about anyone, from CEOs to firefighters: How does the human mind make decisions? And how can we make those decisions better?
这是一本心理学畅销书,书名就是一个很有趣的问题,让人不禁好奇,专家怎么会还不如一只猩猩呢?其实这是中文译者跟书友开的小玩笑,她在暗示你:想得太多可能还不如啥也不想更高明呢。其实,这本书的副标题才是核心,副标题叫做“如何让大脑帮你做出正确的选择。” 一谈到做决...

重复训练把技能编程进大脑成为本能;直觉&&本能PK逻辑&&理性;always think about thinking && learning from errors
评分看这本书最大的收获在于我重新认识了情感在判断和决定中的重要作用。很多时候并不是光有理性分析,一切事情就会有所解决。情感作为潜意识大冰山的水上一角,是让我们做出快速也是最佳决定的重要因素。没有情感的协作,比如反社会人格(可以辨识情感,无法有同情心),孤独症(有同情心,但辨识情感困难)都在人际交往和社会生活中存在严重障碍。神奇的多巴胺会从经验中一次次体验出最佳方案,并在适当的时候通过情感感应给出最佳决定的提示。当然情绪高昂的时候也有失控的时候,比如赌博上瘾,信用卡购物上瘾,或者抑郁症导致前额叶皮层歇菜。所以让两个系统达到平衡,有准确的直觉和完善的理性分析,我们才能做出对自己最好的决定。当然这些也是通过练习来强化的,练习也就包括不断犯错误,并分析错误得出教训,下次才能进步。
评分这本书和think fast and slow挑一本看就行了,重合度蛮大。直觉是判断很重要的一部分。如何培养直觉的正确性呢,不断的,有纠错反馈的练习。如果理论正确的话,冥想,禅定,打坐之类内省的功夫也可以让直觉更加敏锐
评分其实这本书的思路和观点,和思考快与慢中提到的出奇一致,然后结合这个理论就可以证明outliner中专家培养直觉以及顺带的一万小时天才理论,于是这类认知科学的花式组合又多了一个新可能(也就是畅销书骗钱),当然之后说的 Thinking about thinking,还是值得一看的,总体来说不错,虽然拼拼凑凑,也算玩出了花样。
