Summary
Do emotions really cloud your thinking? Are habits holding you back? Is AI manipulating your mind? Does IQ help you think better?
Every one of our thoughts, actions, moods and decisions is shaped by a whole array of factors, most of which we don't pay any attention to. From culture, time and language to genetics, technology and the microorganisms living inside us—even our own unconscious routines and habits—it's clear that we aren't always in the driving seat.
The good news is that by better understanding the external and internal forces at work, we can minimise their impact on our lives. Drawing on rigorous interdisciplinary research, leading science journalists Miriam Frankel and Matt Warren bring us extraordinary stories and studies that open our eyes to the inner workings of the mind, challenge our thought processes and improve our decision-making. Most of all, Are You Thinking Clearly? is a rallying cry to know yourself, think broadly, think boldly—and to listen.

Loved it!
It's impossible not to like it! 'Are You Thinking Clearly' is an easy ride and it can certainly capture different audiences. I particularly enjoyed the balanced way of the authors' reasoning blended with a discussion with specialists on the field. On top, it didn't give me the feeling that I was reading a boring scientific article, but instead, that I was given real life examples to relate to. I can certainly read this book more than once!
