Why we make mistakes [electronic resource] : how we look without seeing, forget things in seconds, and are all pretty sure we are way above average / Joseph T. Hallinan.

Hallinan, Joseph T. (Author). Cashman, Marc. (Added Author).

Summary:

We forget our passwords. We pay too much to go to the gym. We think we'd be happier if we lived in California (we wouldn't), and we think we should stick with our first answer on tests (we shouldn't). Why do we make mistakes? And could we do a little better? We human beings have design flaws. Our eyes play tricks on us, our stories change in the retelling, and most of us are fairly sure we're way above average.
