You might be surprised at what you think you know
Do you think things are generally getting better, or generally getting worse? I used to think a world-view was mostly just a reflection of your personality: Optimist? World's getting better. Pessimist? Worlds getting worse. I was proved wrong – It turns out my world view was either 50+ years out of date, based on skewed media, or simply made up. This book spans from public health through to economics, business, technology, psychology, education, climate change, and politics. It covers all of this with insightful anecdotes and teaches how we can avoid some of these cognitive biases.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

A book all should read
Hans Roslin is an inspiring individual who unfortunately died recently. His presentation disproves many common misapprehensions in an entertaining and informative way. A very worthwhile addition to his well known TED lectures.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

An important book for our times.
In a world awash with baseless rhetoric that is informing very important decisions, this book should be required reading for everyone. A descent hardback book containing very worthwhile ideas that are worth keeping in perpetuity seems a bit of a bargain. Hence my 5 stars - highly recommended.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
