Adaptive Thinking : Rationality in the Real World

This is a collection of Gigerenzer's most important papers on rationality, heuristics, and rituals. Although the papers were originally addressed to distinct scientific communities, they have since been rewritten, updated, and shortened to convey the impressive contiguity and range of work. This volume affords readers the first opportunity to see how his different scholarly endeavours combine to demonstrate a coherent and unified theoretical structure.
