📕 BOOK OF THE WEEK
The book offers two excellent insights: 1. How people successfully work together as partners in intellectual or academic projects, and what can go wrong in such partnerships if they don't put the partnership above their individual needs. and 2. The common ways people make mistakes in thinking and decision making.
The book is as much about the relationship between Amos Tversky and Daniel Kahneman, as the work they did. Danny Kahneman went on to win a Nobel Prize for the work, after Amos died. Danny also wrote a book about the work, called  Thinking, Fast and Slow which is surely worth reading 💯
