You are Not So Smart: A Celebration of Delusion and the Anchoring Effect

Screenshot - 7_28_2010 , 9_17_19 AM_thumb.png
This is a nice blog where the author writes on psychological issues relating to irrational thinking..

You Are Not So Smart is a blog devoted to self delusion and irrational thinking.  There’s a lot of research out there suggesting you have no idea why you act or think the way you do.
It feels awful to accept such things, so you create narratives to explain your own feelings and behavior...The author, David McRaney, is not a psychologist or an economist. He is a journalist writing about what those super-smart and hard-working people are discovering on these topics and doing his best to translate it for the rest of us.
