Subliminal: How Your Unconscious Mind Rules Your Behavior - Mlodinow, Leonard

From the bestselling author of The Drunkards Walk, a startling, eye-opening examination of how the unconscious mind shapes our experience of the world. Mlodinow plunges into the realm of the unconscious mind accompanied by the latest scientific research ... [with] plenty of his trademark humour. Los Angeles Times Over the past two decades of neurological research, it has become increasingly clear that the way we experience the worldour perception, behaviour, memory, and social judgmentis largely driven by the mind's subliminal processes and not by the conscious ones, as we have long believed. In Subliminal, Leonard Mlodinow employs his signature concise, accessible explanations of the most obscure scientific subjects to unravel the complexities of the subliminal mind. In the process he shows the many ways it influences how we misperceive our relationships with family, friends, and business associates; how we misunderstand the reasons for our investment decisions; and how we misremember important eventsalong the way, changing our view of ourselves and the world around us.
