StoryShots Book Summary and Analysis of Thinking Fast and Slow by Daniel Kahnenman
About Daniel Kahneman
Daniel Kahneman is Professor of Psychology and Public Affairs Emeritus at the Princeton School of Public and International Affairs, the Eugene Higgins Professor of Psychology Emeritus at Princeton University, and a fellow of the Center for Rationality at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem. Dr. Kahneman is a member of the National Academy of Science, the Philosophical Society, and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. He is also a fellow of the American Psychological Association, the American Psychological Society, the Society of Experimental Psychologists, and the Econometric Society. In 2015, The Economist listed him as the seventh most influential economist in the world. In 2002, Kahneman was also awarded a Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences.
Introduction
Thinking, Fast and Slow provides an outline of the two most common approaches our brains utilize. Like a computer, our brain is built of systems. System 1 is fast, intuitive, and emotional. Daniel Kahneman encourages us to move away from our reliance on this system. System 1 is the most common source of mistakes and stagnation. In comparison, system 2 is a slower, more deliberate, and logical thought process. Kahneman recommends tapping into this system more frequently. As well as this advice, Kahneman provides guidance on how and why we make our decisions.
StoryShot #1: System 1 Is Innate
There are two thought processes: System 1, which includes innate abilities and learned skills, and System 2, which is effortful and deliberate. System 1 is the oldest and unconscious, used for intuitive decisions and filtering experiences. Attention is associated with both systems, working in tandem. System 1 influences many choices and judgments, even if it feels insignificant.

StoryShot #2: System 2 Can Control Parts of System 1
StoryShot #3: The Two Systems Support Each Other
