Your Brain Is Playing Tricks on You - How the Brain Shapes Opinions and Perceptions

Informationen zum Autor Dr. Albert Moukheiber is a neuroscientist and clinical psychologist. He has worked for 10 years in the psychiatry department at the Hôpital Pitié-Salpêtrière, focusing mainly on anxiety disorders and resilience. He now works as a clinician at his practice and teaches at the University Paris 8 in the clinical psychology department. He has also founded Chiasma, a structure that is interested in how our brain reconstructs reality to confirm our prior beliefs and how to promote mental flexibility. Chiasma focuses on how we form opinions and the impact of these mechanisms on our decision making. Albert is also a lecturer and a lead workshop developer for businesses and shares the latest scientific discoveries on behaviour and cognition and how they impact our daily lives. Klappentext Why are we often convinced that we're right even when we're wrong? Why are we jealous, or paranoid, even when we have absolutely no reason to be? Why is it so easy for fake news to spread around the globe and fool us? It's because we don't see the world as it is, rather we reconstruct it in our mind.
