This national bestseller by former Harvard professor Todd Rose dives into the illusions and false assumptions that drive our society's bad decisions, leading to mistrust and unhappiness. Drawing on cutting-edge research, Rose explains how we act against our own best interests due to our brains' misunderstanding of what we think others believe. These illusions, driven by conformity bias, distort how we see the world, leading us to copy others, lie about what we believe, and cling to tribes. Yet, Rose offers a hopeful explanation for how we can bridge the inference gap, make decisions with newfound clarity, and achieve fulfillment, ultimately transforming society.
