Blink

The Power of Thinking Without Thinking
Book • 2005
In 'Blink', Malcolm Gladwell explores the concept of 'thin-slicing', the ability of our unconscious mind to make rapid decisions based on limited information.

The book delves into both the strengths and pitfalls of this process, using examples from various fields such as psychology, medicine, sales, and law enforcement.

Gladwell discusses how these snap judgments can be both incredibly accurate and sometimes tragically wrong, influenced by factors like prejudice, stereotypes, and psychological priming.

He also examines how experts develop their intuitive judgment through experience and training, and how stressful situations can affect our decision-making abilities.
