THE PSYCHOLOGY OF STUPIDITY KARTONIERT (TB)

We need books like this one. --Steven Pinker At last  stupidity explained! And by some of the
world's smartest people  among them Daniel Kahneman  Dan Ariely  Alison Gopnik  Howard Gardner
Antonio Damasio  Aaron James  and Ryan Holiday. And so I proclaim  o idiots of every stripe and
morons of all kinds  this is your moment of glory: this book speaks only to you. But you will
not recognize yourselves... Stupidity is all around us  from the coworker who won't stop
hitting reply all to the former high school classmate posting conspiracy theories on Facebook.
But in order to vanquish it  we must first understand it. In The Psychology of Stupidity  some
of the world's leading psychologists and thinkers--including a Nobel Prize winner and
bestselling authors--will show you... • why smart people sometimes believe in utter nonsense  •
how our lazy brains cause us to make the wrong decisions  • why trying to debate fools is a
trap  • how media manipulation and Internet overstimulation make us dumber  • why the stupidest
people don't think they're stupid. The wisdom and wit of these experts are a balm for our
aggrieved souls and a beacon of hope in a world of morons.
