1. 1. La Inteligencia Fracasada

   Teoría y práctica de la estupidez

   

   A critical analysis of why human intelligence often fails in practice, explaining how cognitive biases, emotions, poor education and faulty social and political institutions turn potential intelligence into error and stupidity; the book distinguishes different types of intellectual failure, uses psychological, historical and social examples to show how individuals and societies make predictable mistakes, and argues for cultivating a ‘constructive’ intelligence through ethical education, prudence and institutional reform to reduce personal and collective failures.
