In his book “May Contain Lies: How stories, statistics and studies exploit our biases - and what we can do about it”, Dr Alex Edmans urges us to pause and reflect before we trust any article or a “fact” stated in a book or in a newspaper. It doesn’t matter who wrote it. And it isn’t such a tedious process to work it out.
In this podcast Alex shares his views on confirmation bias, what is wrong with our interpretation of the 10,000 hour rule (among others), how social media is playing an outsized role in disseminating information, how JFK possibly averted the third world war during the Cuban missle crisis and why some leaders encourage their teams to challenge authority and are better off for it.
