Gerd Gigerenzer
Дата рождения: September 03, 1947 – Wallersdorf, Bavaria, Germany
Gerd Gigerenzer is a German psychologist known for his research on decision-making under uncertainty, bounded rationality, and risk literacy. A former director at the Max Planck Institute for Human Development, he wrote Gut Feelings and Risk Savvy, helping popularize fast-and-frugal heuristics in psychology, medicine, and public policy.
Биография и Путь Автора
Gerd Gigerenzer emerged from academic psychology rather than literary culture, but he became one of the field’s most recognizable public writers by turning complex questions about judgment into clear, practical prose. Trained at LMU Munich, where he earned his psychology degree in 1974, his Ph.D. in 1977, and his habilitation in 1982, he built his career through a sequence of posts at Munich, Konstanz, Salzburg, and the University of Chicago before taking on major leadership roles at the Max Planck institutes in Munich and Berlin. Those moves marked the central turning points in his intellectual development: away from abstract ideals of perfect rationality and toward the study of how real people make workable decisions under uncertainty.
