Product Description
The Life Changing Science of Detecting Bullshit
Author: John V. Petrocelli
Format: Hardcover
Building on his widely viewed TEDx talk, psychology professor and social scientist John V. Petrocelli examines how misleading, unfounded claims take root in our thinking and lead to poor decisions with real consequences for our health, finances, relationships, and time. He argues that no one is immune, and that such falsehoods are especially dangerous when delivered by authority figures and experts we are inclined to trust.
Drawing on examples from industries built on persuasion, he lays out the red flags to watch for and offers practical strategies for building critical thinking and scientific reasoning so readers can separate fact from fiction and resist misinformation.
