πŸ“ Description

This book, authored by Lionel Page, delves into the seemingly irrational aspects of human behavior, arguing that many of our biases and cognitive quirks are actually "optimally irrational" – strategic adaptations that serve us well in social and evolutionary contexts. It covers topics like self-deception, communication, and coalition building.
