Description

The Knowledge Illusion: The Myth of Individual Thought and the Power of Collective Wisdom by Steven Sloman and Philip Fernbach. Our understanding of human intelligence is often based on an outdated idea - that individual thinking is the key to success. However, cognitive scientists Steven Sloman and Philip Fernbach argue that this notion is a myth. Instead, they reveal how our collective knowledge and expertise play a crucial role in our success as a species. By exploring cutting-edge research, The Knowledge Illusion shows why we think we know more than we do, why beliefs are hard to change, and why mistakes are common. It also provides a blueprint for successful collaboration and highlights the importance of working together to achieve amazing things.
