  Why Stupid People Think They're...

  The Dunning-Kruger Effect is a cognitive bias in which people with limited knowledge or ability in a certain area overestimate their competence. It is named after social psychologists David Dunning and Justin Kruger, who first identified the phenomenon in a 1999 study. The effect highlights a curious and often frustrating contradiction: those who are least skilled in a particular domain are often the most confident in their abilities. This psychological phenomenon is not just a theoretical curiosity—it has real-world consequences for individuals and society. 
    
  At the heart of the Dunning-Kruger Effect is the relationship between self-perception and actual competence. It’s common for people to assume that their understanding of a topic or skill is more advanced than it truly is, especially in areas where they have little experience. This overconfidence stems from ignorance: when you don’t know what you don’t know, you are unaware of the gaps in your knowledge. In fact, research suggests that the less a person knows about a subject, the more likely they are to overestimate their abilities in that area. Conversely, those who are highly skilled tend to underestimate their competence, as they are more aware of the complexities and nuances of the field. 
    
  The Dunning-Kruger Effect also underscores the significant role that confidence plays in shaping how we perceive ourselves and others. Confidence is often mistaken for competence, leading people to believe that an individual’s self-assurance is a reflection of their skill or knowledge. However, confidence can be a double-edged sword: while it can motivate people to pursue challenges and opportunities, it can also prevent them from recognizing their own limitations. This creates a dangerous feedback loop where overconfidence leads to poor decisions and missed learning opportunities.

  Linguistics and Symbols provides an in-depth look into how language, values, and symbols shape our understanding of the world. This 3-in-1 volume explores three key areas—Phonology, Axiology, and Symbology—that are foundational to the study of language, communication, and meaning. 
  The first section, Phonology, delves into the sound systems of language, examining how phonemes, tones, and patterns of speech create meaning and influence communication. It explores how different cultures and languages use sound to convey emotions, ideas, and information, showing the power of phonetics in shaping human interaction. 
  In the second section, Axiology, readers will explore the role of values in language and communication. Axiology focuses on the study of values—what people deem important and how these values influence societal structures, ethics, and language. This section highlights how language is often a reflection of the moral and cultural values of a community, shaping how we express judgments, preferences, and ideals. 
  The final section, Symbology, investigates the system of symbols and their meaning across various cultures. Symbols are powerful tools of communication, often carrying deep cultural, emotional, and historical significance. By examining symbols—whether in written form, visual representations, or gestures—this section reveals how they help convey complex ideas and how they are interpreted by different societies. 
  Linguistics and Symbols is an essential guide for anyone seeking to understand how language and symbols shape human cognition, culture, and society. It provides key insights into the fundamental components of language and meaning, offering readers a deeper appreciation of how we communicate, understand, and connect with one another through sounds, values, and symbols.

  The audiobook version of "Enduring Art, Active Faith - 3 Generations Create!" , recorded by Robert G. Proudfoot in April 2023 through Audivita, is an abridged version of the print book by the same name, which was previously published by Robert G. Proudfoot in February 2019 through FriesenPress Inc. The audiobook is comprised of two fictional short stories taken from the print book: "The Guard", and "Half and Half", written originally by Robert G. Proudfoot and Norma Proudfoot, respectively.  
       "The Guard" tells of an unlikely friendship that develops between an expatriate English schoolboy (James Greenburgh) and an African night watchman (Winter Banda), hired to guard the Greenburgh's home in Lusaka, Zambia while James' diplomat father is away in Great Britain, negotiating with Rhodesian and British Governments and black nationalist groups, towards transition to African majority rule for the break-away British colony during the turbulent early 1970s. In "Half and Half", an aging military veteran re-examines the satisfying life he has gained despite difficulties experienced - even with ongoing poverty,  want, and conflict in the world - after he encounters a little boy during the Christmas season in a busy Edmonton shopping mall, who despite so young is coping with disappointments and seeking answers for life's complexities.
