This includes strategies like technical analysis, market risk, overconfidence bias, investment decision making and many others. By the time you finish this book you will have acquired some knowledge of how attitudes and beliefs affect financial decisions and how they relate to each other when faced with uncertainty.

Awful use of AI
Revisado: 11-30-24
The reading is terrible. The AI reader constantly leaves out prepositions, which often changes the meaning (“instead…” is the opposite of “instead of…” and “due [something]” is very different from “due to [something]”). And don’t get me started on the inappropriate intonation. Ugh.
It sounds like the book may have not only been read by AI, but also AI-written, though that doesn’t seem to be indicated in the description. The content is pretty droll - though it’s hard to get a good hold on the content due to the awful voicing of it. (See - imagine if I left out “to” in “due to” there.)
Don’t waste your time on this book. And definitely don’t waste money or credits. Total dud, zero positive value.

Historia
The Art of Is contains breath-of-fresh-air thinking about how to cultivate the kind of game-changing creativity everyone seeks. Stephen Nachmanovitch shows exactly how the passion and immediacy of improvisation can be cultivated and how, in fact, we all improvise all the time - whether we are driving or deep in conversation.

So profound

This book speaks so poignantly to my work, even though it never mentions my career in specific terms. It is a wonderful read.

Historia
China's two greatest philosophers, Confucius and Lao Tzu, were intensely interested in how we should live and how a good society is governed. The central concepts of Confucianism are li, the proper ordering of society through rituals and ceremonies, and zhen, the proper ordering of the self through humaneness, benevolence, and love. Daoism, taught under such masters as Lao Tzu and Zhuangzi, meditates on the interdependence of opposites and teaches the path of non-resistance.

OK for what it is, but...
Revisado: 01-09-22
The content of the book is OK for what it is, an overview of some aspects of Chinese philosophy.
But...
There are two major problems with the reading that are distracting and even offensive.
The first is that the narrator does not know how to pronounce Chinese names, which is problematic for listeners who do. Worse, she seems to over-emphasise the "foreignness" of certain words in a way that is perhaps meant to make it seems she knows these concepts and knows what she's talking about. It really backfires, and instead ends up feeling like a move towards other-ising the concepts and the cultures from which they come.
Even worse is the reading of the passages quoted from Chinese philosophy texts. A different reader is used for these sections, and he has a very thick accent that ends up making it feel like a parody. It reeks of a Fu Manchu type of representation, especially because it is such a contrast to the very British accent of the narrator. In the end, it just comes off as extremely patronising and even racist. It's awful to see that.
