About this audiobook
Motivated reasoning, tribal epistemology, and exactly why commitment to group identity overpowers evidence and logic consistently despite intelligence levels. This cognitive science application to politics reveals how team loyalty determines belief regardless of facts contradicting group positions. Understand why intelligent people believe demonstrably false things when identity is involved and why facts rarely change minds once identity is activated strongly.
