Abstract

The authors explore the hidden biases we all carry from a lifetime of exposure to cultural attitudes about age, gender, race, ethnicity, religion, social class, sexuality, disability status, and nationality. 'Blindspot' is the authors' metaphor for the portion of the mind that houses hidden biases. They question the extent to which our perceptions of social groups - without our awareness or conscious control - shape our likes and dislikes and our judgments about people's character, abilities, and potential. The title's 'good people' are those of us who strive to align our behaviour with our intentions. The aim of this book is to explain the science in plain enough language to help well-intentioned people achieve that alignment. By gaining awareness, we can adapt beliefs and behavior and 'outsmart the machine' in our heads so we can be fairer to those around us. Venturing into this book is an invitation to understand our own minds.

Abstract

In Blindspot, the authors reveal hidden biases based on their experience with the Implicit Association Test, a method that has revolutionized the way scientists learn about the human mind and that gives us a glimpse into what lies within the metaphoric blindspot.https://www.standaardboekhandel.be/p/blindspot-9780345528438
