Daniel Kahneman

Daniel Kahneman's work with Amos Tversky in the 1970s, built in long daily conversations in Jerusalem, produced the research on heuristics, biases and prospect theory that founded behavioural economics. They tossed a coin to decide whose name went first on papers. When Kahneman received the 2002 Nobel prize in economics, Tversky had died, and Kahneman repeatedly said it was a shared award. Later he championed "adversarial collaboration" with critics. He died in 2024.
