The central argument
What this book is trying to do
Human judgment is constructed through attention, memory, emotion, comparison, identity, social context, and choice architecture. Better decisions require processes that make those influences easier to detect and correct.
Who it is for: General readers, leaders, professionals, educators, coaches, and anyone who wants practical psychological literacy without turning psychological concepts into labels for other people.
