Daniel Kahneman, Nobel laureate in Economic Sciences (2002), was a pioneering psychologist renowned for his groundbreaking research in decision-making and behavioral economics, conducted alongside Amos Tversky. As the Eugene Higgins Professor of Psychology Emeritus at Princeton University and former professor at the Woodrow Wilson School, Kahneman reshaped our understanding of human judgment and bias. His influential works include the international bestseller Thinking, Fast and Slow, which explores the dual systems that drive our decisions, and Noise: A Flaw in Human Judgment, co-authored with Olivier Sibony and Cass Sunstein, which examines variability in judgments. Kahneman’s legacy continues to impact economics, psychology, and beyond. He died in 2024.
