In this comprehensive book, author and philosopher Peter Singer explores everything from self-belief to climate change denial and the anti-Vaxx movement, navigating readers through the functions of doubt. He looks at how doubt is dispelled, how it can be 'weaponised,' and how both the proliferation and absence of doubt can lead to harmful belief systems.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSinger features interviews with Nobel prize winners, former terrorists, world-class athletes, famous artists, and coaches to explore how doubt functions in the lives of transformational thinkers and figures of popular interest. He examines how doubt can help us to question our assumptions, challenge our beliefs, and develop a more nuanced understanding of the world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDoubt is not only a psychological phenomenon, but it also has political and social implications. Singer argues that the rise of doubt is a threat to democracy, as it can lead to the erosion of trust in institutions and the spread of misinformation. He also explores how doubt can be used as a tool for social change, by encouraging individuals to question the status quo and to challenge the dominant narratives of society.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book is a must-read for anyone who wants to better understand the power of doubt and how it can be used to promote positive change in the world. It is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of a topic that is often overlooked, but that has the potential to transform our understanding of the world and our place in it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 490g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 234 x 156 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781032252056\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GeoffreyBeattie","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44104093663482,"sku":"9781032252056","price":133.28,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1670598222273_book.jpg?v=1670830918","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/doubt-a-psychological-exploration-9781032252056","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
