The art of thinking clearly

Book • 2014
In this book, Rolf Dobelli examines the faulty reasoning that leads to repeated mistakes by individuals, businesses, and nations.

It is a comprehensive guide to recognizing and avoiding cognitive biases, presented in 99 short chapters.

The book does not offer a recipe for happiness but rather a well-considered treatise on avoiding self-induced unhappiness through better decision-making.

It uses simple, real-world examples to illustrate common errors of judgment and provides practical advice on how to avoid them.
