Simler and Hanson have crafted a tidy and provocative book about how full of it we all are and why. And how self deception appears and functions in our most hallowed institutions: education, medicine, charity, etc.
They make a strong case. The book has a light and breezy tone at times, but is full of info and good illustrative examples (more so when they stay away from examples from their own lives).
The reading by Kafer is very solid.
Not many books pack this much value. A big idea explained and then its real world implications explored in many directions. Yet not too dense for listening to while commuting.
This is a top 5 audiobook for me. Actually enjoyed my time on the 405 for the last week.
