Description
Restoring Reason: A Framework for Evaluating Knowledge and Regaining Control in a World of Information Overload. In today's world, we're constantly bombarded with data from various sources, often with conflicting or misleading information. This can lead to feelings of frustration, confusion, and anxiety. However, there is a way to take back control and make sense of the world around us. The liberal arts, which have been around for centuries, provide a skillset to evaluate knowledge and draw our own conclusions. Travis Corcoran, in his book Restoring Reason, explains how the trivium - knowledge, understanding, and wisdom - can help us make high-quality decisions and lead a fulfilling life. He also analyzes the five biggest social engineers today, including corporate interests and legacy media, to provide a systematic framework for distinguishing truth from falsehood. This reproducible approach will help you see through misinformation and lead an independent life.
