The Sunday Times bestseller (May 2021) ‘A tour de force of
scholarship and clear writing’
New York Times ‘This is a monumental, gripping book. It is also
bracing … The three authors have transformed the way we think about
the world. They have looked beneath and beyond the way we make
decisions and organise our lives. A follow-up of sorts to Thinking,
Fast and Slow, it is a further step down the road towards a more
complex and realistic grasp of human affairs that is replacing the
crude simplifications of the recent past. Outstanding’
Sunday Times ‘As you’d expect from its authors, it is a rigorous
approach to an important topic… There’s lots to surprise and
entertain. Anyone who has found the literature on cognitive biases
important will find this a valuable addition to their knowledge’
Danny Finkelstein, The Times ‘Noise is everywhere and is seriously
disruptive. The authors have come up with a bold solution. The book
is a satisfying journey through a big but not unsolvable problem,
with plenty of fascinating case studies along the way. Humans are
often bad at making decisions. But we can get better’
Martha Gill, Evening Standard ‘The greatest source of ineffective
policies are often not biases, corruption or ill-will, but three
“I”: Intuition, Ignorance and Inertia. This book masterfully
demonstrates why the three “I” are so pervasive, and what we can do
to fight them. An essential, eye opening read’
Esther Duflo, winner of a 2019 Nobel Prize ‘In Noise, the authors
brilliantly apply their unique and novel insights into the flaws in
human judgment to every sphere of human endeavour… Noise is a
masterful achievement and a landmark in the field of
psychology’
Philip E. Tetlock, co-author of Superforecasting ‘An electrifying
exploration of the human mind, this book will permanently change
the way we think about the scale and scope of bias’
David Lammy
