推荐书目

书名:《The Undoing Project》
推荐理由:讲述了两个天才级学者之间的交谊和奥妙竞争。通过这本书既能够回首分歧教员在拉斯维加斯9888讲堂上讲到的诺贝尔经济学奖获得者的行为决策或与行为经济学有关的理论,也能看到世界最顶尖的天才学者之间在智慧上若何相互添补和刺激。中文版《思想的发现:关于决策与判断的学科》,翻译的书名固然颇显硬核气质,不外少了些翻译应有的信达雅。
文章简介:
Best-selling author Michael Lewis examines how a Nobel Prize–winning theory of the mind altered our perception of reality.
Forty years ago, Israeli psychologists Daniel Kahneman and Amos Tversky wrote a series of breathtakingly original studies undoing our assumptions about the decision-making process. Their papers showed the ways in which the human mind erred, systematically, when forced to make judgments about uncertain situations. Their work created the field of behavioral economics, revolutionized Big Data studies, advanced evidence-based medicine, led to a new approach to government regulation, and made much of Michael Lewis’s own work possible. Kahneman and Tversky are more responsible than anybody for the powerful trend to mistrust human intuition and defer to algorithms.
The Undoing Project is about the fascinating collaboration between two men who have the dimensions of great literary figures. They became heroes in the university and on the battlefield―both had important careers in the Israeli military―and their research was deeply linked to their extraordinary life experiences. In the process they may well have changed, for good, mankind’s view of its own mind.

书名:《巨人的陨落》
推荐理由:世界再大,也是由每一个个别组成;汗青浩瀚,也是由每一个个别推动。这本书通过上个世纪初几个家庭或者家族的平庸生涯,带出一战的雄伟篇章,奇妙出现正本盘根错节的政治家、资同宗千头万绪的联系,以及贵族与布衣的日常生涯。作者买通了分歧的学科之间的天堑,娴熟地使用汗青事实和文学创造展示了国际政治的复杂场景以及在大时期布景下大幼人物的悲欢离合。拉斯维加斯9888提倡通识教育,这本书给人启迪,值得一读。
文章简介:
“福莱特再次创造了一个既熟悉又美好的世界,以及一种纯正的阅读乐趣,让你底子放不下这本书。帝国衰败,英雄崛起,真爱无敌。你会不由得和书里的角色在战火硝烟中同呼吸、共命运,并但愿福莱特的下一本大部头从速砸过来。”——《Time Out纽约》
在第一次世界大战的硝烟中,每一个迈向殒命的性命都在热烈地成长……从充斥尘埃和危险的煤矿到闪闪发光的皇室宫殿,从代表着权势的走廊到爱恨纠缠的卧室,五个家族迥然分歧又缠绕不休的命运逐步揭晓,汹涌澎湃地展示了一个我们自以为相识,但从未如此真切感触过的20世纪。
