  The Clean Decision - A Field...

  Most people assume their worst decisions come from lack of information. Ezra Tovell argues the opposite: the real danger lies in the hidden architecture of a mind that feels trustworthy precisely when it is most likely to fail.
  The Clean Decision is a rigorous, readable guide to the mental traps that quietly sabotage judgment — in business, medicine, politics, relationships, and everyday life. Drawing on decades of research in behavioral economics, cognitive psychology, and decision theory, Tovell maps the full landscape of human bias: why we see patterns that aren't there, misremember our own past, defer to authority when we shouldn't, mistake emotional certainty for factual truth, and keep investing in failures because stopping feels worse than continuing.
  Each chapter takes a different class of error — from overconfidence and sunk costs to loss aversion, groupthink, anchoring, and the seductive power of free, new, and scarce — and traces it through real cases that reshaped institutions and history: NASA's Mars Climate Orbiter, Kodak's slow surrender to digital photography, the Bay of Pigs invasion, the Challenger disaster, wrongful convictions built on sincere but false eyewitness testimony, and financial crises amplified by the illusion of control.
  Tovell introduces a core insight that runs beneath all the chapters: roughly ten foundational decisions — whom to build a life with, how to earn a living, where to live, whom to allow influence — determine 80 to 90 percent of a life's trajectory. The Clean Decision teaches readers to identify which decisions actually matter, and to bring the right tools to bear on them.

  ""Not unlike some of Ralph Ellison’s or Richard Wright’s best work. White Guilt, a serious meditation on vital issues, deserves a wide readership.” — Cleveland Plain Dealer 
  In 1955 the killers of Emmett Till, a black Mississippi youth, were acquitted because they were white. Forty years later, despite the strong DNA evidence against him, accused murderer O. J. Simpson went free after his attorney portrayed him as a victim of racism. The age of white supremacy has given way to an age of white guilt—and neither has been good for African Americans. 
  Through articulate analysis and engrossing recollections, acclaimed race relations scholar Shelby Steele sounds a powerful call for a new culture of personal responsibility.

  In the summer of 2022, Lee Berger lost 50 pounds in order to wriggle though impossibly small openings in the Rising Star cave complex in South Africa—spaces where his team has been unearthing the remains of Homo naledi, a proto-human likely to have coexisted with Homo sapiens some 250,000 years ago. The lead researcher on the site, still Berger had never made his way into the dark, cramped, dangerous underground spaces where many of the naledi fossils had been found. Now he was ready to do so. Once inside the cave, Berger made shocking new discoveries that expand our understanding of this early hominid—discoveries that stand to alter our fundamental understanding of what makes us human. So what does it all mean? Join Berger on the adventure of a lifetime as he explores the Rising Star cave system and begins the complicated process of explaining these extraordinary finds—finds that force a rethinking of human evolution, and discoveries that Berger calls "the Rosetta stone of the human mind."
