Mistakes Were Made (but Not by Me): Why We Justify… Tekijä: Carol Tavris
A quick read, but very insightful, about how our tendency to justify what we have done has serious consequences.
½I enjoyed the 3rd edition until the last chapter. I am in no way defending Trump, but I think the authors lost their persuasive arguments by using him as an example of how people can live with dissonance. Is he a good example? He is an excellent example. Will their arguments persuade anyone in the pro Trump camp that they were wrong? No. They will just shoot down the valuable information that is shared before the last chapter. Oh well.
This is a book worthy of being read by everybody and accessible enough to be read by anyone.
