About the book
Carol Tavris, a renowned social psychologist, explores confirmation bias and the self-deception that leads us to justify our own actions, even when clearly wrong. Through scientific research and engaging narratives, she demonstrates how humans rationalize our mistakes to protect our self-image.
An essential book that offers insight into why admitting mistakes is so difficult and how we can develop greater self-awareness and personal responsibility.
