Beschreibung

PIRATE TALES: 80+ Novels, Stories, Legends & History of the True Buccaneers is a masterful compendium that traverses the stormy seas of pirate lore and historic tales of high-sea adventures. This anthology encapsulates a vast array of literary styles that range from gripping suspense and classic narratives to haunting mysteries and swashbuckling adventures, offering a kaleidoscopic view of the notorious buccaneers who once ruled the oceans. The collection presents a treasure trove of literary gems without singling out any particular piece, lending equal weight to the compelling narratives of heroism, treachery, and seafaring valor woven throughout the ages. The assembly of illustrious authors such as Jules Verne, Edgar Allan Poe, and Robert Louis Stevenson, among others, contributes richly to the theme of maritime escapades and the pirate's life on the untamed seas. Through the fusion of voices from different eras - from the romanticized tales of Walter Scott to the vividly detailed accounts of Daniel Defoe - the anthology aptly captures the zeitgeist of historical, cultural, and literary movements, highlighting the universal allure of pirate lore seen through varied lenses. Such collective artistry enriches one's understanding of piracy as both a literal and metaphorical voyage. Readers are invited to embark on this literary journey into the daring exploits of famed pirate figures and the legends that surround them. This volume presents an unparalleled opportunity to explore a multitude of perspectives, styles, and themes, promising educational enlightenment and an abundance of insightful reflections. The dynamic dialogue between different authors' works sets the stage for in-depth exploration, not just of pirate mythology, but also of the human spirit's enduring fascination with the sea's mysteries and its raucous inhabitants.

    In this manual you will find a series of tips and mental models to think better while avoiding the most common cognitive biases and logical fallacies, how and why we are persuaded by people and advertisements and how to make better decisions.  
      
    After reading this book, you will realize that an important percentage of the people you hang out with (or hear about) are subject to reasoning errors, but this does not depend on intelligence (or at least marginally) but on habits, partial information and how our mind has been structured during evolution but, above all, it depends on our tendency towards cognitive economy: having to decide on the basis of rational reasoning requires longer times and many resources. In order not to overload our brains and to be able to cope with such continuous requests in a reasonable time without being exhausted, we are forced to use intuition and some cognitive (heuristic) shortcuts. This way of reasoning, however, makes us more likely to choose in an associative, metaphorical and casual way, more rarely in a probabilistic way.  
    Who is this book for?  
      
    To people who want to improve their ability to argue, to those who want to know the most common cognitive biases and logical fallacies but, also, to those who want to deepen persuasion, decision making, logic and some curiosities about the human mind. This book starts from the basics and, vertically, deepens most of the topics covered.
