Episode description

This episode deals with some of the social reasons why people think the way they do. People believe what they want to believe and investigate only to confirm their pre-existing ideas. What can we do to counter this behaviour? The book referenced in the article is: How we know what isn't so: The fallibility of human reason in everyday life. Written by: Thomas Gilovich
