By Leonard Mlidinow
The author researches how our unconscious mind/thoughts shade how we feel about the world around us. Even when we believe we are being open-minded and neutral, our mind is always processing and influencing our relationships and life choices.
This may sound like a deep and slightly confusing subject, and it is --- people don't like to think of themselves as being unconsciously prejudiced against anything. We float through life believing that we are intelligent human beings, fully capable of making rational choices. That's what makes this book interesting. It proves that we are influenced by how people look and what we are told, even when we try to be impartial.
