Uncommon Sense

Meer over het boek

The book explores the fundamental flaws in human cognition that hinder our ability to effectively address large-scale issues like climate change, biodiversity loss, and overpopulation. It argues that our failure to respond to looming environmental and economic crises stems from an inability to think rationally about long-term consequences. By examining these cognitive shortcomings, the author suggests that recognizing and understanding them is crucial for finding sustainable solutions to prevent widespread suffering and preserve the planet's future.
