Book
Think : why you should question everything / Guy P. Harrison.
An introductory guide to critical thinking that will help you think like a scientist, learn to question everything, and understand how your own brain can trip you up. With a mix of wit and wisdom, it challenges everyone to embrace the skeptical life and improve their critical thinking skills. The author shows you how to better navigate through the maze of biases and traps that are standard features of every human brain. These innate pitfalls threaten to trick us into seeing, hearing, thinking, remembering, and believing things that are not real or true.--Publisher
