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.
