Description

Drawing on psychology, neuroscience, and memorable real-world experiments, this accessible exploration reveals how unconscious processes shape perception, emotion, social behavior, decision-making, and our sense of self. It explains how the mind fills gaps in sensory information, interprets bodily reactions, reads subtle social cues, and forms judgments beyond conscious awareness. Engaging and thought-provoking, the book challenges the idea that people are fully rational and shows how context, memory, relationships, and hidden mental mechanisms influence everyday life. Ultimately, it offers a deeper understanding of human behavior—and of the unseen forces that guide our choices.
