Misbelief: What Makes Rational People Believe Irrational Things

Here’s the set-up:

Named a Best Science Book for 2023

The renowned social scientist, professor, and bestselling author of Predictably Irrational delivers his most urgent and compelling book—an eye-opening exploration of the human side of the misinformation crisis—examining what drives otherwise rational people to adopt deeply irrational beliefs.

Misinformation affects all of us on a daily basis—from social media to larger political challenges, from casual conversations in supermarkets, to even our closest relationships. While we recognize the dangers that misinformation poses, the problem is complex—far beyond what policing social media alone can achieve—and too often our limited solutions are shaped by partisan politics and individual interpretations of truth.

In Misbelief, preeminent social scientist Dan Ariely argues that to understand the irrational appeal of misinformation, we must first understand the behavior of “misbelief”—the psychological and social journey that leads people to mistrust accepted truths, entertain alternative facts, and even embrace full-blown conspiracy theories. Misinformation, it turns out, appeals to something innate in all of us—on the right and the left—and it is only by understanding this psychology that we can blunt its effects. Grounded in years of study as well as Ariely’s own experience as a target of disinformation, Misbelief is an eye-opening and comprehensive analysis of the psychological drivers that cause otherwise rational people to adopt deeply irrational beliefs. Utilizing the latest research, Ariely reveals the key elements—emotional, cognitive, personality, and social—that drive people down the funnel of false information and mistrust, showing how under the right circumstances, anyone can become a misbeliever.

Yet Ariely also offers hope. Even as advanced artificial intelligence has become capable of generating convincing fake news stories at an unprecedented scale, he shows that awareness of these forces fueling misbelief make us, as individuals and as a society, more resilient to its allure. Combating misbelief requires a strategy rooted not in conflict, but in empathy. The sooner we recognize that misbelief is above all else a human problem, the sooner we can become the solution ourselves.

Here’s the set-up:

Look, there’s a reason why I live by myself in a cabin in the middle of nowhere. My time in the military left my mind and body scarred. Finding out my ex-fiancée screwed me over me while I was overseas just rubbed salt in the wound.

I’m not fit to be around other people, so I keep myself to myself and live off the grid. Being alone suits me. I’m better off that way.

Or at least that’s what I think.

Then she shows up on my doorstep. She claims the Valentine’s Day flowers she’s delivering are from a secret admirer, but f*ck that. Even if they are, I don’t care. All I can see is her.

Her sweet mouth and wicked tongue demand to be claimed. Her perfect body is begging to be touched and taken.
When a freak blizzard strands her with me in the wilderness, it takes all my restraint to keep my hands to myself and remain a gentleman. Her every move tests me, tempts me, tortures me.

There’s no way an innocent, sheltered flower delivery girl can fall for a gruff, rugged, lonely mountain man like me.

Or is there…

Here’s the set-up:

A new girl at school who is serious about her studies. A football player with nothing but fun on his mind. Can two teenagers from opposite worlds find love?

Sophie Blake is used to change. She’s used to being the new kid at school. But she’s never had the privilege of attending a school like Oak Brook Academy. She’s certainly never pictured herself at a boarding school with kids who have more money than what she could even imagine spending.

Wes Carter’s life is pretty easy. He’s popular, he’s on the football team and there’s no shortage of girls who are willing to spend time with him. Most girls don’t seem to challenge him the way that new girl, Fifi does. Something about the new girl is definitely intriguing.

When Sophie stands up to Wes during a playful first encounter and then marches out of the popular kids’ secret hideout, she puts her entire high school reputation on the line. She’s happy with her decision to be true to herself, but why can’t she get his dreamy green eyes out of her mind?

The New Girl is the first standalone book in the Oak Brook Academy teen sweet romance series. If you like charming mismatches, high school antics, and flirtatious twists of fate, then you’ll love Jillian Adams’ idyllic tale of love and romance for young adults.

Here’s the set-up:

When he’s called to the scene of an accident detective Kevin Infante is drawn into a shocking and puzzling crime that still haunts the Baltimore P.D. Twenty years ago, two little girls were kidnapped from a shopping mall, igniting fear and anger throughout the city.

Now, a clearly disoriented woman involved in the accident claims to be one of the missing girls. But instead of closing the case, her appearance marks the beginning of a nightmare that will once again rock Baltimore and threaten everyone it touches. The woman claims one of Baltimore’s beloved cops snatched her and her sister. Is it the truth-or the ravings of a damaged mind? There isn’t a shred of evidence to support her story: The cop is dead and her parents can’t verify the woman is even their daughter, for both girls were adopted and do not share their DNA. And who is the body in the unmarked grave the girl reveals?

With the department’s reputation, a dead man’s honor, and his own badge on the line, Infante must go back to a past he barely knows to find answers—and maybe even justice—once and for all.
