Overview

Humans aren't as logical as we think. We make confident predictions that fail, stick to bad decisions, fall for obvious scams, misjudge risks, and sabotage long-term goals - even when we know better. This book explains why. Paradoxes of the Logical Human Mind breaks down the built-in mental patterns that cause everyday errors in judgment. Using research from psychology, neuroscience, and behavioral economics, it shows how our decisions are shaped by ancient survival wiring that no longer fits the modern world. Inside, you'll learn: Why we crave certainty even in situations ruled by probability. Why intelligent people defend false beliefs instead of correcting them. Why losses hurt more than gains, and how this skews our choices. Why we overestimate our abilities, underestimate timelines, and misjudge our future behavior. Why too many options make us freeze, regret, and overthink. Why the ""future you"" gets ignored by the ""present you"". Why emotion is required for rational decisions, not the enemy of logic. The book doesn't treat these behaviors as personal failures. It shows how each bias, shortcut, and contradiction once helped humans survive - and how understanding them helps you make better decisions today. If you want a clear, practical explanation of how the mind actually works - without sugarcoating, mysticism, or academic jargon - this book lays it out simply and directly. Understand the patterns. Catch your own errors. Think more clearly. Unlock the real logic behind our illogical choices.
