@KevinSimler Where did you get the knowledge for your book "Elephant in the Brain"?
I'm guessing you did a lot of reading and thinking.
What kind of books did you read? And what kind of thinking did you do?
How did you find the patterns?

Robin definitely pioneered a lot of the core concepts in the book, so http://overcomingbias.com was a big early source of inspiration. Otherwise, like you said, just lots of reading and thinking — and writing, to debug my thinking.
Didn't have a very systematic process. Just followed bunny trails / read whatever felt most interesting to me and relevant to the book!
