Synopsis

Why do intelligent people make irrational decisions? Why do we cling to beliefs despite evidence, fear losses more than we value gains, and allow first impressions, emotions, and social influence to shape our choices? The answers lie in cognitive biases—the hidden mental shortcuts our brains use every day. In COGNITIVE BIASES: The Hidden Mental Shortcuts That Shape Every Decision, JAY R. ROBBIN takes readers on a fascinating journey through psychology, neuroscience, behavioral economics, and history to reveal how these invisible biases influence the way we think, remember, judge, and decide. Through captivating real-world stories, groundbreaking scientific research, and practical insights, you'll discover why even the smartest people make predictable mistakes, how cognitive biases affect relationships, careers, money, health, leadership, politics, social media, and artificial intelligence, and, most importantly, how to recognize these mental traps and make wiser decisions. Engaging, evidence-based, and thought-provoking, this book is not about becoming perfectly rational—it is about becoming more aware, more curious, and more willing to question your assumptions. Once you understand how your mind works, you'll never think about your decisions the same way again.
