Kahneman, Thinking, Fast and Slow (Farrar, Straus & Giroux 2011) addresses similar issues and is very readable. The author, an Israeli-American psychologist and Nobel laureate, summarizes his research on what he calls System 1 and System 2 in this book, discussing how intuitive decisionmaking and more deliberate decisionmaking occur. The results of the research are deeply troubling to anyone who would like to think humans are rational decisionmakers.
