Invisible gorilla: How our intuitions deceive us / Chabris, Christopher; Simons, Daniel 2009  Book
Chabris, Christopher Book
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication New York, Broadway Paperbacks, 2009.
Description xiii, 306pWhite spine
Summary/Abstract In an award-winning and groundbreaking study, psychologists Christopher Chabris and Daniel Simons asked volunteers to watch a 60-second film of a group of students playing basketball and told them to count the number of passes made. About halfway through, a woman dressed head to toe in a gorilla outfit slowly moved to centre screen, beat her chest at the camera, and casually strolled away. Unbelievably, almost half of the volunteers missed the gorilla. As this astonishing and utterly unique new book demonstrates, exactly the same kind of mental illusion that causes people to miss the gorilla can also explain why many other things, including why honest eyewitness testimony can convict innocent defendants and expert money managers suddenly lose billions. Homer Simpson has much to teach you about clear thinking. This book closely examines the impressions that most profoundly influence our lives and gives practical advice on how we can minimize their negative impact.

Irrationality: The enemy within / Sutherland, Stuart 2013  Book
Sutherland, Stuart Book
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication London, Pinter & Martin Ltd., 2013.
Description xi, 336pBlue spine
Summary/Abstract Why do doctors, army generals, high-ranking government officials and other people in positions of power make bad decisions that cause harm to others? Why do prizes serve no useful function? Why are punishments so ineffective? Why is interviewing such an unsatisfactory method of selection? Irrationality is a challenging and thought-provoking book that draws on statistical concepts, probability theory and a mass of intriguing research to expose the failings of human reasoning, judgement and intuition. The author explores the inconsistencies of human behaviour, and discovers why even the experts find it so hard to make rational and unbiased decisions. Written with clarity and occasional flashes of wry humour, this classic volume is just as relevant today as when it was first written twenty-one years ago.

Thouless, R.H. Book
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication London, Hodder Education, 2011.
Description xi, 171pYellow spine
Summary/Abstract This new edition of a timeless classic demonstrates how the use of clear, rational thinking and logic can win any argument, however emotionally charged the topic in question. It describes the typical flaws of reasoning in argument and shows how language can be used to deceive - and how to avoid being deceived. It will show you how, by learning what is 'straight', rational language, and clear thought, you can disentangle emotionally charged rhetoric and hold your own in any argument or debate, no matter how challenging. Although written nearly 80 years ago, this book proves that certain principles remain timeless; it has shown many thousands over the decades how to cope with media spin and distorted reasoning - and now it will do the same for you.
