Description

Christopher Booker's final book explores the hidden key to understanding the world's disturbing trends. He examines the concept of groupthink, a phenomenon identified by a Yale professor, and its influence on society.

Booker defines the three rules of groupthink: adopting a common view not based on objective reality, establishing a consensus of right-minded people, and treating opposing views as unacceptable. He shows how this way of thinking has led to a culture of fear, causing errors in judgement and polarised factions.

By examining the underlying causes of groupthink, Booker argues that we can understand its sinister power and its impact on our lives. This thought-provoking book sheds new light on a worrying trend that affects us all.
