A modern classic about how people really make decisions: drawing on prior experience, using a combination of intuition and analysis.

Since its publication twenty years ago, Sources of Power has been enormously influential. The book has sold more than 50,000 copies, has been translated into six languages, has been cited in professional journals that range from Journal of Marketing Research to Journal of Nursing, and is mentioned by Malcolm Gladwell in Blink. Author Gary Klein has collaborated with Nobel laureate Daniel Kahneman and served on a team that redesigned the White House Situation Room to support more effective decision making. The model of decision making Klein proposes in the book has been adopted in fields including law enforcement training and petrochemical plant operation. What is the groundbreaking new way to approach decision making described in this modern classic?

We have all seen images of firefighters rescuing people from burning buildings and paramedics treating bombing victims. How do these individuals make the split-second decisions that save lives? Most studies of decision making, based on artificial tasks assigned in laboratory settings, view people as biased and unskilled. Klein proposes a naturalistic approach to decision making, which views people as gaining experience that enables them to use a combination of intuition and analysis to make decisions. To illustrate this approach, Klein tells stories of people--from pilots to chess masters--acting under such real-life constraints as time pressure, high stakes, personal responsibility, and shifting conditions.

Great Chair
I was needing an affordable ergo chair and have tried quite a few. For this price range, you can't beat the quality of this piece. Adjustable lumbar support, arm rest height perfect and cushioned. The head piece is nice, but just not for me. Nicely rocks for those who can't sit still. Easy to assemble by yourself (~20 min) using common sense. The only reason I did not give it 5 stars is the seat is made more for someone wider, as I someone feel like my hips are dipping inwards (I am also very narrow). Got a more solid butt pad, and it's perfect. Also! I didn't even need to put on my lumbar support pillow, as the lumbar support is perfect for me! Definitely recommend!

Stylish, Ergonomic
Stylish, ErgonomicI’ve been looking for a white office chair that doesn't just look good but actually supports my back. This chair exceeds expectations! The split-back design provides amazing lumbar support that moves with you. The mesh is breathable and high-quality, and the cushion is firm yet comfortable for long hours of sitting. Setup was straightforward, and the build feels very sturdy. Highly recommend if you want to upgrade your home office setup!

Comfortable for Long Sitting
This office chair feels very supportive and comfortable during long hours of work or gaming. The mesh back allows good airflow, and the seat feels wide and stable. The adjustable tilt and armrests make it easier to find a relaxing position. The wheels roll smoothly on the floor.
