Overview

We like to imagine delusions as rare, dramatic failures of the mind. In reality, they grow quietly inside all of us. A hunch becomes a pattern, a feeling becomes a fact, a story becomes a worldview. Intelligent people aren't immune; they're often better at building convincing illusions. This book explores how ordinary minds create extraordinary beliefs, not out of madness but out of the brain's need for meaning, certainty and coherence. If we can learn to see our illusions forming, we can loosen their grip and choose our stories more wisely. Surendra Verma has been a science writer and author based in Melbourne, Australia, since 1970. He has published numerous popular science books in Australia, the UK, the US and India, and they have been translated into 14 languages other than English.
