We forget our passwords. We pay too much to go to the gym. We think we’d be happier if we lived in California (we wouldn’t), and we think we should stick with our first answer on tests (we shouldn’t). Why do we make mistakes? And could we do a little better?
We human beings have design flaws. Our eyes play tricks on us, our stories change in the retelling, and most of us are fairly sure we’re way above average. In Why We Make Mistakes, journalist Joseph T. Hallinan sets out to explore the captivating science of human error--how we think, see, remember, and forget, and how this sets us up for wholly irresistible mistakes.
In his quest to understand our imperfections, Hallinan delves into psychology, neuroscience, and economics, with forays into aviation, consumer behavior, geography, football, stock picking, and more. He discovers that some of the same qualities that make us efficient also make us error prone. We learn to move rapidly through the world, quickly recognizing patterns--but overlooking details. Which is why thirteen-year-old boys discover errors that NASA scientists miss—and why you can’t find the beer in your refrigerator.
Why We Make Mistakes is enlivened by real-life stories--of weathermen whose predictions are uncannily accurate and a witness who sent an innocent man to jail--and offers valuable advice, such as how to remember where you’ve hidden something important. You’ll learn why multitasking is a bad idea, why men make errors women don’t, and why most people think San Diego is west of Reno (it’s not).
Why We Make Mistakes will open your eyes to the reasons behind your mistakes--and have you vowing to do better the next time.
约瑟夫.哈里南写了一本书,《为什么我们视而不见:错觉》。 看完书,就对一点印象深刻:男人女人都自恋,男人更自恋一点 这本书不只是写自恋,主要内容是描述人类爱犯的错误,以及其原因——错觉。如前言所说:我们是存在偏见的,可自己却意识不到。这种倾向一方面如此强烈,...
評分书名很吸引人,当时就是因为书名而买的。书的主要内容看看目录就够了,里面的例子多,但是分析少。如果读后,能多思考一下,反观自我,或许有一定的收获。 要点:寻找意义,记牢事情。不要让环境干扰你的判断。小心过于良好的自我感觉。跳出思维定式。
評分看到有感悟的几点。 “一件东西,如果你不常看到它,你也常会看不到它。(我们会看到自己希望看到的) ‘退出门槛’:在特定的一段时间内如果还是找不到,就干脆放弃,不再去找了。 作为一个基本原理,人们对自己的‘作为’比‘不作为’,感觉要负有更大的责任。如果某件...
評分关于这本书,我给的评价为“还行”。我一般给予弃之可惜,食之无味的书予这样的评价。之所以这本书被我当作鸡肋,就是因为除了将之作为镜子之外,别无用处。 讲讲为什么是“镜子”:书中举例了大量的错误的例子。我想,作者在收集这些案例方面恐怕下了不少的功夫,就像作者在...
評分由于大学读的是新闻,导致我对于普利策新闻奖这个称谓无比推崇,当然发自内心的说:那些记者们不仅逻辑清晰、勇往无畏,且文笔流畅,写作功底足以与一流的作家媲美,最重要的一点是,他们都非常善于发现聚焦点以及隐藏在背后的真相。 好吧,就不继续岔远了,今天推荐的书,是...
original version is much better, even the quility of the paper
评分看看
评分還算有趣,有些例子也有現實意義。不過很多地方隻提瞭問題沒給解決方式。
评分因為我們總是信心滿滿還又聽不進去彆人的勸。
评分本書不隻是寫自戀,主要內容是描述人類愛犯的錯誤,以及其原因——錯覺。如前言所說:我們是存在偏見的,可自己卻意識不到。這種傾嚮一方麵如此強烈,另一方麵我們對它的存在又不知不覺。
