This book is very informational
I get bored pretty fast when I read an informational book, so when I’m reading this one I give myself some time after finishing 2 3 pages! But since the information is very interesting I keep going.

This book has something in it that I really like. I don't know what it is, maybe it's my predilection towards human brain.
"Traditionally, we assume that humans are rational decision makers: they absorb information, process it, and come up with an optimal answer or solution. But real humans don’t operate this way. Even judges, striving for freedom from bias, are imprisoned in their biology."

The conscious you is only the smallest part of the activity of your brain. Your actions, your beliefs and your biases are all driven by networks in your brain to which you have no conscious access.

The slice of reality that we can see is limited by our biology.

“indiscriminate friendliness”.
This part reminded me of homeless labor children in my country. They’d beg for your attention, to buy something from them and maybe give them a treat. They’d try to rub their face to your hands, but everyone thought that’s an act of stealing something from your pockets! Not knowing it’s much, much deeper than that...
Oh god! What a book
