FEBRUARY BOOK


February's book will be Thinking (https://www.amazon.com/Thinking-Science-Decision-Making-Problem-Solving-Prediction/dp/0062258540), a collection of pieces edited by John Brockman, who runs the Edge.org website.  Whether you subscribe to cogito ergo sum or bibo ergo sum, put on your thinking caps and drinking chaps and join us at the cozy Sylvia Hotel dining room (not the lounge) on Tuesday, Feb. 5.  Festivities commence at 7pm and new members (and old) are always welcome.


         


From the bestselling authors of Thinking, Fast and Slow; The Black Swan; and Stumbling on Happiness comes a cutting-edge exploration of the mysteries of rational thought, decision-making, intuition, morality, willpower, problem-solving, prediction, forecasting, unconscious behavior, and beyond. Edited by John Brockman, publisher of Edge.org ("The world's smartest website"—The Guardian), Thinking presents original ideas by today's leading psychologists, neuroscientists, and philosophers who are radically expanding our understanding of human thought.
