There is simply no better introductory book on this topic. It is comprehensive, easy to understand, and chapters need not be read sequentially. * Martin Hedesström, University of Gothenburg, Sweden * Nancy Kim's stellar textbook on judgment and decision making is the best resource I have found for my entry-level course for decision science and behavioral economics majors. This book is approachable, explains concepts well, and covers the key contributions of the field comprehensively. * Julie Downs, Carnegie Mellon University, USA * An essential core textbook on judgment and decision-making, sapiently merging theory, scientific evidence and real-world applications in different fields to provide a well-rounded understanding of the discipline. * Claudia Civai, City St. George's, University of London, UK * An invaluable resource for students and researchers alike.

You may never look at a menu, a price tag, or a ballot the same way again. * John Petrocelli, Wake Forest University, USA * This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in understanding how we make decisions. Its blend of theoretical insights and practical examples makes it a useful text for both academic study and real-world application.
