Are stupidity and sanity related? The truth may surprise you.
We are all masters of self-delusion. Every day we make decisions that aren’t based on logic, but rather stories. Stories that we tell ourselves about who we are, what we want and why we want it.
The Little Book of Stupidity is about these stories, from:
Why you are always tricked into paying more
How a piece of grilled-cheese sold for 28,000$
Why the legal system will always be flawed
Why we can never save money
Why we can’t end unhealthy relationships
Why you are biologically wired to be judgmental
How a statistician saved countless American lives
The real secret behind “being lucky”
Why you should stop watching the new immediately
Why more choices don’t make you happier
Best-selling author, Sia Mohajer, takes us on a journey through the statistics, experiments and psychology of stupidity to reveal one important fact – self-delusions are part of being human.
You will emerge from this journey – wiser, more compassionate and with a better understanding of yourself.
