Noise: A Flaw in Human Judgment

The thing is not about the idea of the book, it is the fact that it's solely based on a very unnecessary new term to categorise something called irrational thinking and biased judgement. So as we want to make ourselves look smart, we go by inventing this new term called noise and it's everywhere. This is the issue. It is mainly aimed for being a NYT bestseller without a lot of substantial research and reasoning that could support the sole 400 pages of this book. And by saying, you might think I've got a lot of noise in my review cause I've only managed to read a chapter or two and then skimming through a bit and reading other reviews to find out that...well, there is simply not much of a solution to solve the noise problem that roots from the very term bias. Maybe we could just group them altogether don't you think so? Ah. Yes, Daniel Kahneman, I think you might just contribute the very idea. Thought Thinking fast and also was very liberating. But this one is more or less a book to be skipped. Cause the sole synopsis can sum up most of the content. Noise.
