  ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
  “The 100-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out the Window and Disappeared” by Jonas Jonasson follows Allan Karlsson, a centenarian who escapes his birthday party at a nursing home, embarking on a wild and unexpected adventure. Allan, with no particular destination in mind, accidentally steals a suitcase full of money, which leads him into the path of criminals, police, and journalists. The novel blends dark humor with absurdity, exploring themes of fate, the randomness of life, and the absurdity of politics and history. Through Allan's quirky experiences, Jonasson critiques human nature, power, and the unpredictability of events.

  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.

  This book contains the following three titles: 
  Psychodynamic Therapy - Psychodynamic therapy is an approach to psychological treatment rooted in the ideas and concepts developed by Sigmund Freud and his followers. It emphasizes the importance of unconscious processes and early childhood experiences in shaping an individual's thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. This therapy aims to bring these unconscious factors into conscious awareness, helping individuals gain insight and resolve internal conflicts that may be contributing to current psychological difficulties. 
  Psychosocial Therapy - Psychosocial therapy is a holistic approach to mental health care that emphasizes the interconnectedness of psychological and social factors in promoting well-being and recovery. Unlike traditional approaches that primarily focus on symptom management through medication or isolated psychotherapy, psychosocial therapy addresses the broader context of an individual’s life. It explores how relationships, community involvement, cultural background, and socioeconomic conditions influence mental health outcomes. 
  Play Therapy - Play is a fundamental aspect of childhood, serving as a natural medium through which children explore the world, express emotions, and develop essential skills. For children facing emotional, social, or psychological challenges, play becomes more than just a recreational activity; it transforms into a powerful tool for healing and growth. Play therapy harnesses the innate creativity and spontaneity of play to address a wide range of difficulties, offering children a safe and supportive environment to work through their struggles.
