Neurosis and political violence, drug addiction and terrorism, the placebo effect and false memories - have all these concepts been proven to be real in psychological experiments. Every week the BBC covers some aspect of human behaviour and the huge range of cognitive biases that we suffer from.Each case study in this excellent new book focuses on one particular area of psychological research. They offer valuable insights into what drives us and how it motivates our behaviour, sometimes leading us astray and sometimes helping us understand others. Psychology and Psychiatrist Orla Lynch explores topics like secondhand smoking and astigmatism in young children; why women's pay gap in the workplace hasn't closed; and what role social media may play in the explanation of populist sentiments and the election of Donald Trump.This fascinating volume offers a unique lens into the complexities of human motivation and thinking. To fully understand the cascading effects on our behaviour of economic and political forces is crucial for policy- and decision-makers.The cases are well-researched, accessible to non-specialists, just succinct enough to be easily absorbed and thought-provoking enough to raise questions, challenge assumptions and stimulate reflection. This is an invaluable resource for anyone keen to understand or integrate psychological evidence into their work, whether that be politicians, psychologists or political scientists.
