Pentapod reviewed On Second Thought by Wray Herbert
Review of 'On Second Thought' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
Listened to this one on Audible and found it a very interesting overview of the shortcuts that our brains are hard-wired to take in different areas. Shortcuts that made sense throughout our evolution to keep us alive may not always be either valid or helpful in the modern world, and this book outlines a different category in each chapter and gives explanation and examples of each. It's meant as an introduction for the layman and is very approachable, probably not detailed enough for someone actually working in the field of study already, but for those of us who are not it's definitely fascinating and enlightening.
