Psychology Book - Outsmarting Cognitive Biases

We live in a world full of prejudices, and for good reason: our brain, a fabulous machine for understanding what surrounds us, constantly creates stereotypes and makes us, whether we like it or not, perfect discriminators, but also victims – sometimes unconsciously – of prejudices.Enrick Barbillon reveals the tricks our brain plays on us, the stereotypes that guide us and their consequences on a societal scale.HASIn the era of fake news, mass manipulation – real or imagined –, xenophobic ideologies and conspiracy theories, this book is an essential tool for intellectual self-defense.
