Being Wrong

Being wrong is an inescapable part of being alive. And yet, we go through life tacitly assuming that we are right about nearly everything - from our political beliefs to our private memories, from our grasp of scientific fact to the merits of our favourite team. This book looks at why this conviction has such a powerful grip on us.
