My life while the world spins madly on...

Thoughts arising while working as a scientist or just randomly spinning from my brain.

I don't give a damn, I'm happy as a clam, nobody knows me at all

thinking...

In the beautiful town of Aberfeldy, where Robert Burns wrote "The Birks of Aberfeldy", I bought a book in a nice bookshop located in an old water mill. It's called Thinking, Fast and Slow, written by Daniel Kahneman. The author describes how our brain is governed by two systems - an excellent read (though I am interested to hear what my sister has to say on this).

 

Im Städchen Aberfeldy, kaufte ich mir in einer kultigen Buchhandlung in einer alten Wassermühle das Buch Thinking, Fast and Slow von Daniel Kahneman. Er beschreibt darin, wie unser Gehirn von zwei Systemen gesteuert wird, ein sehr interessantes Thema und sehr gut geschrieben.
