The Intelligence Trap: Why Smart People Make Stupid Mistakes - And How to Make Wiser Decisions

Smart people's fallacies unveiled, wisdom's path offered.

"The Intelligence Trap" could be a fascinating read for you if you've ever wondered why brilliance doesn't necessarily equate to making better decisions. It's an insightful exploration into the pitfalls of high intellect and a guide to improving mental habits. Through compelling examples and scientific insights, Robson offers a handbook for enhancing our thinking in complex modern times. It's a book you might find eye-opening, especially if you enjoy psychology and self-improvement.

Description

Packed with cutting-edge research, historical case studies, entertaining stories, and practical advice, The Intelligence Trap explores the flaws in our understanding of intelligence and expertise, and reveals the ways that even the brightest minds and talented organizations can backfire - from some of Thomas Edison's worst ideas to failures at NASA, Nokia, and the FBI. With a knack for explaining complex ideas and featuring timeless lessons from Socrates to Benjamin Franklin to Richard Feynman and the latest behavioral science, Robson shows how to build a cognitive toolkit to avoid mistakes and protect ourselves from misinformation and fake news.
