Uncertainty, risk, ambiguity, emotion, non-verbal behaviour - in so
many ways life is like a game of poker. So approach it like a poker
player, with critical thinking. In The Truth Detective, science
journalist and competitive poker player Alex O'Brien shows how we
can survive and prosper in a world full of uncertainty and
incomplete information. It's a book about getting to the truth.
You'll meet a host of experts who break down the science of
navigating a world in which fact and fiction are becoming
increasingly hard to tell apart. Presenting evidence from
psychological research and a range of professionals - from FBI
agents and behavioural economists to poker aces and bounty hunters
- O'Brien assembles strategies we can all use to analyse the
information that surrounds us every day. Tackle life like a poker
player. Let your critical thinking guide you through the jungle of
disinformation - and on to success in the game of life.
