How People Make Decisions (The MIT Press)
Gary A. Klein
This influential modern classic explores the groundbreaking new way to approach decision making. The naturalistic approach proposed by author Gary Klein views people as gaining experience that enables them to use a combination of intuition and analysis to make decisions. Through real-life stories of individuals such as pilots and chess masters, Klein illustrates how this approach can be applied under real-life constraints such as time pressure, high stakes, personal responsibility, and shifting conditions. Adopted in fields including law enforcement training and petrochemical plant operation, this book offers a fresh perspective on decision making that has transformed various industries.

I've read many books on decision making but this one had the most powerful impact on me.
For the approach he takes alone, studying front line workers making life and death decisions, it's a worthy read.
