520    "Some of the world's smartest people explain stupidity, 
       among them Daniel Kahneman, Dan Ariely, Alison Gopnik, 
       Howard Gardner, Antonio Damasio, Aaron James, and Ryan 
       Holiday. "We need books like this one." --Steven Pinker 
       And so I proclaim, o idiots of every stripe and morons of 
       all kinds, this is your moment of glory: this book speaks 
       only to you. But you will not recognize yourselves... 
       Stupidity is all around us, from the coworker who won't 
       stop hitting "reply all" to the former high school 
       classmate posting conspiracy theories on Facebook. But in 
       order to battle idiocy, we must first understand it. In 
       The Psychology of Stupidity, some of the world's leading 
       psychologists and thinkers--including Nobel Prize winners 
       and bestselling authors--will show you... -why smart 
       people sometimes believe in utter nonsense; -how our lazy 
       brains cause us to make the wrong decisions; -why trying 
       to debate fools is a trap; -how media manipulation and 
       Internet overstimulation make us dumber; -why the 
       stupidest people don't think they're stupid. Their wisdom 
       and wit are a balm for our aggrieved souls and a beacon of
       hope in a world of morons"--|cProvided by publisher.
