Stop Being Fooled: A Practical Guide to Spotting Fake News, Weak Arguments, Misleading Evidence, and AI Deception.: 10 (The Critical Thinker) - Tapa blanda

Stop Being Fooled (Paperback)

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Is it possible to think clearly in a world built to trick you? Yes, it is. Learn how to catch a lie before it reaches you, and question a claim before it becomes your belief. Stop Being Fooled isn't a normal book on fake news or media literacy. Yes, it covers all of that: doctored photos, cherry-picked statistics, AI-generated content. But this book goes deeper. It's about how your own brain is wired to be fooled in the first place. Your mind doesn't passively record the world. It predicts it, filling in gaps before you've even finished looking, which is exactly why a rigged headline, a staged photo, or a confident stranger can convince you of something false in seconds, no matter how smart you are. You cannot stop being lied to. But you can stop being fooled by it.Why even wine experts and trained researchers get fooled by expectation alone.The three types of information disorder circulating right now, and how to name them on sight.Socratic questioning and the SIFT method, two field-tested tools for interrogating any claim before you believe, share, or act on it.How to find the hidden crack in an argument using the Toulmin Model.What actually separates human writing from AI, now that AI detectors can no longer tell the difference reliably.How to protect yourself and the people you love from deepfake scams and cloned voices.Parts of this book read like the sharpest media literacy course you never took in school. Other parts read like a psychology lesson on why smart, careful people still fall for the same tricks as everyone else. Albert Rutherford is an internationally bestselling author known for making complex topics accessible. Using studies, academic journals, and his own experience, Rutherford brings a wealth of knowledge and a knack for storytelling, making this book a valuable resource for anyone who no longer wants to be the last one in the room to catch a lie.
