Endlich Ordnung im Alltagschaos David steckt in Schwierigkeiten, ständig vergisst er seine Hausaufgaben und kommt zu spät zur Schule. Ms. Morales, seine Lehrerin, hat jetzt die Faxen dicke und schreibt den Eltern. Nicht gut! Dabei hat David die besten Absichten, es kommt nur halt immer was dazwischen: Freunde, Fernsehen usw. Die Eltern drohen mit ernsthaften Konsequenzen. Doch unerwartete Hilfe kommt von seinem Hunderoboter Dot und aus der Welt der Wissenschaft. Durch eine Reihe kreativer Experimente kann David seinen Eltern beweisen, dass seine Probleme nicht persönlich sind, sondern universell. Das hilft, sich selbst zu überlisten, doch mal pünktlich aufzustehen und die Hausaufgaben zumindest deutlich häufiger zu machen. Voller Fakten und Experimente, Humor und Empathie

Renomovaný sociológ, profesor a autor bestsellerov Dan Ariely prináša svoju doteraz najnaliehavejšiu knihu – strhujúci pohľad na ľudský rozmer krízy dezinformácií –, v ktorej skúma, prečo si inak racionálni ľudia osvojujú hlboko iracionálne presvedčenia. Dezinformácie nás denne zasahujú od sociálnych sietí po najbližšie vzťahy a riešenia často skresľuje straníckosť a subjektívne „pravdy“.V knihe Prečo sa mýlime Ariely tvrdí, že pochopiť príťažlivosť dezinformácií znamená pochopiť psychologickú a sociálnu cestu k mylnému presvedčeniu: k nedôvere voči všeobecne prijímaným faktom, k „alternatívnym pravdám“ a napokon ku konšpiráciám. Dezinformácie oslovujú vrodené sklony naprieč celým politickým spektrom. Na základe rokov výskumu aj osobnej skúsenosti autor analyzuje emocionálne, kognitívne, osobnostné a sociálne faktory, ktoré ženú ľudí dolu pomyselným lievikom mylných presvedčení, a ukazuje, že za určitých okolností sa to môže stať komukoľvek.Autor však ponúka aj nádej. Hoci umelá inteligencia dokáže vo veľkom generovať presvedčivé klamstvá, poznanie síl, ktoré živia mylné presvedčenia, zvyšuje odolnosť jednotlivcov i spoločnosti. Boj s nimi si žiada stratégiu založenú skôr na empatii než na konflikte. Keď pochopíme, že ide predovšetkým o ľudský problém, môžeme sa stať súčasťou riešenia.

Dan Ariely, behavioral economist and the New York Times bestselling author of The Upside of Irrationality and Predictably Irrational, examines the contradictory forces that drive us to cheat and keep us honest, in this groundbreaking look at the way we behave: The (Honest) Truth About Dishonesty. From ticket-fixing in our police departments to test-score scandals in our schools, from our elected leaders’ extra-marital affairs to the Ponzi schemes undermining our economy, cheating and dishonesty are ubiquitous parts of our national news cycle—and inescapable parts of the human condition. Drawing on original experiments and research, in the vein of Freakonomics, The Tipping Point, and Survival of the Sickest, Ariely reveals—honestly—what motivates these irrational, but entirely human, behaviors.
