This book argues that the science of reasoning will prove most
useful if focused on studying what human reasoning does best -
understanding people. Bonnefon argues that humanity's unique
reasoning abilities developed in order to handle the complexities
of cooperative social life. Accordingly, human beings became
exquisite students of the minds of other people to predict the kind
of decisions they make, and assess their character. In particular,
this volume explores the inferences humans make about the moral
character of others, how they delude themselves about their own
moral character, and the ways in which they can see through the
delusions of others. In conclusion, the book considers how to
leverage the power of human reasoning in order to sustain
democratic life. This work will interest scholars and students
working in fields including theory of mind, decision-making, moral
cognition, critical thinking, experimental philosophy, and
behavioural economics, as well as policy makers interested in how
reasoning impacts our political understanding.
