知識的假象：為什麼我們從未獨立思考？
The Knowledge Illusion: Why We Never Think Alone
Language: Chinese
Release Date: June 1, 2018
★《人類大歷史》作者哈拉瑞 推薦
★《經濟學人》《金融時報》《紐約時報》《出版人週刊》 一致好評
世界愈來愈複雜，人類卻未正視自己的無知。
如何才能避免自以為是，
進而提高我們的決策準確率，獲得更好的結果？
這是一本精準有趣的人類智慧使用手冊，
將帶你從認知科學的全新角度去了解人的思考和心智，
為生活、理財和未來，做出最佳選擇！
其實我們沒有自己想得那麼聰明，但並不表示我們不能生活得更好。
懂得在知識上謙卑、認清理解的侷限，
然後將他人的智慧占為己用，我們就能為每件事做出正確的選擇。
在社交媒體盛行、假新聞層出不窮的時代，人們搞不清楚自己不懂哪些事，對自身的無知渾然不覺，許多評論和錯誤觀念才會難以改變，本書正是要探討這種「知識的假象」。
人類之所以能主宰地球，是因為無與倫比的群體思考能力，正因為智慧存在於眾人之中，不屬於任何個人，因此我們可以在集思廣益之下修正弱點和錯誤，運用知識共同體打造出異常強大的社會頭腦。當人類真正「知己所不知」，明白自己也是問題的一環，才能在需要時獲得協助，填補知識上的漏洞。無論是投資理財、感情觸礁、購買房產、人際關係等，我們可以擷取知識共同體的資源，克服與生俱來的限制，做出更聰明適切的決定。
【熱烈好評】
◎本書所提出的觀點不僅能幫助我們思考公共事物，也可以應用到個人面向。讀起來峰迴路轉，讓我們看到人類的智能為何可以既淺薄又強大──端看你如何善用群體的智慧。——馮勃翰...
