Gut Feelings
Gut Feelings: The Intelligence of the Unconscious | Gerd Gigerenzer
3 posts | 3 read | 1 reading | 5 to read
Why is split second decision-making superior to deliberation? Gut Feelings delivers the science behind Malcolm Gladwell?s Blink Reflection and reason are overrated, according to renowned psychologist Gerd Gigerenzer. Much better qualified to help us make decisions is the cognitive, emotional, and social repertoire we call intuition?a suite of gut feelings that have evolved over the millennia specifically for making decisions. ?Gladwell drew heavily on Gigerenzer?s research. But Gigerenzer goes a step further by explaining just why our gut instincts are so often right. Intuition, it seems, is not some sort of mystical chemical reaction but a neurologically based behavior that evolved to ensure that we humans respond quickly when faced with a dilemma? (BusinessWeek).

Gut feelings (as opposed to gut bacteria) is about the intelligence of human intuition. More than we consciously realize, we rely on simple heuristics to solve complicated problems especially under time constraints. This wonderful, short book is very readable and full of fun illustrations. I guarantee you will enjoy learning about your unconscious mind! 🔮
