Sinopsis

Mind Biases explores the hidden ways our minds make systematic errors in judgment. These cognitive biases, or mental shortcuts, significantly influence our choices, often leading us away from rational, informed decisions. The book reveals how heuristics, once vital for quick responses, now cause predictable mistakes in areas like finance, health, and relationships. For instance, confirmation bias leads us to favor information that confirms existing beliefs, while the availability heuristic makes us overestimate the importance of readily available information. This book catalogs specific biases using real-world examples and research from cognitive psychology and behavioral economics. It uniquely synthesizes theoretical frameworks with practical applications, offering a comprehensive toolkit for bias mitigation. Beginning with the history of bias research, the book dedicates chapters to specific biases, then progresses to frameworks for identifying and managing them. Ultimately, Mind Biases emphasizes that awareness is the first step toward better decision-making. By understanding how our minds can be tricked, we can develop strategies to counteract these biases, improving our critical thinking and rational choices in both professional and personal life.

    Martha Nussbaum is one of the most influential philosophers of our time, particularly known for her contributions to feminist theory, political philosophy, and ethics. A professor at the University of Chicago, her work spans a wide array of topics including justice, human capabilities, human rights, and the role of emotions in moral decision-making. Nussbaum’s ideas have significantly impacted both academic philosophy and practical policy, with her innovative theories offering valuable insights into the intersection of ethics, politics, and human development. 
    At the heart of Nussbaum’s intellectual journey is the development of the capabilities approach, a framework she co-created with economist Amartya Sen. This approach is centered on the idea that justice should be evaluated based on individuals’ abilities to function and achieve various important life goals, rather than simply on income or wealth. The capabilities approach emphasizes human dignity and focuses on the conditions that allow people to live lives they have reason to value. It challenges traditional views of social justice by broadening the scope of what constitutes a flourishing life beyond mere economic success. 
    Nussbaum’s feminist philosophy is also pivotal in understanding her work. As an advocate for gender equality, she has critiqued traditional philosophical frameworks that have marginalized women’s voices and experiences. Her feminist perspective emphasizes the importance of recognizing the diverse and often undervalued roles that women play in society, and she works toward reshaping institutions to ensure that women’s capabilities are supported and nurtured. Nussbaum argues that feminism is not just about advocating for women’s rights but also about advancing a more inclusive and just society for all people, regardless of gender.

    The strange and varied lives of the ten children of the world's most beloved novelistCharles Dickens, famous for the indelible child characters he created—from Little Nell to Oliver Twist and David Copperfield—was also the father of ten children (and a possible eleventh). What happened to those children is the fascinating subject of Robert Gottlieb's Great Expectations. With sympathy and understanding he narrates the highly various and surprising stories of each of Dickens's sons and daughters, from Kate, who became a successful artist, to Frank, who died in Moline, Illinois, after serving a grim stretch in the Royal Canadian Mounted Police.Each of these lives is fascinating on its own. Together they comprise a unique window on Victorian England as well as a moving and disturbing study of Dickens as a father and as a man.
