According to statistics, couples that arrange lush weddings are less likely to be divorced. Why? It’s just that wealthy people have fewer reasons for quarrels than the poor, and it is less profitable for them to divorce. That is, there is no direct connection between the scale of the party and the probability of a divorce, but there is an unobvious third factor that explains everything.
Our life is full of such hidden factors, and our brain loves to simplify reality, linking unrelated things in any way. The world -famous psychologist Richard Nisbett explains why simple answers lead to incorrect solutions and fatal errors. The good news is that each of us is capable of not leading to the tricks of “common sense” and learn to think clearly and critically. According to Nisbett, the best life in the modern world is simply not available to you without basic knowledge of statistics and logic. The author gives the reader a whole arsenal of ways to solve life problems and make the right decisions in difficult situations. And he does it so elegant and exciting that every humanitarian will appreciate
