Gigerenzer et al.'s is an extremely important book. The ecological validity of the key heuristics is strengthened by their relation toubiquitous Poisson processes. The recognition heuristic is also used in conspecific cueing processes in ecology. Three additional classes of problem-solving heuristics are proposed for further study: families based on near-decomposability analysis, exaptive construction of functional structures, and robustness.
