The Unpersuadables by Will Storr
Adventures with the Enemies of Science
In this thought-provoking exploration of human belief, the author delves into the minds of those who hold steadfast to unconventional or widely discredited views, from conspiracy theorists to creationists. Through a series of interviews and encounters, the narrative examines the psychological and social factors that contribute to the persistence of these beliefs, despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary. The book challenges readers to consider the complexities of human cognition and the often irrational nature of belief systems, offering insights into why some individuals remain unpersuadable in the face of facts.
