Bias and Noise

Bias is a well-known villain, but an invisible force called noise is wreaking havoc across legal, medical, and financial systems. Daniel Kahneman, Olivier Sibony, and Cass Sunstein reveal that wherever there is human judgment, there is noise. This unwanted variability leads to inconsistent, often scandalous results. This groundbreaking work explains why experts disagree with themselves and each other, providing essential tools for decision hygiene to reduce error and restore fairness to our surprisingly noisy world.
