The way human beings persuade one another is changing. Every day people will try to change your mind but they won't reason with you. Instead you'll be nudged, anchored, incentivised and manipulated in barely noticeable ways. It's a profound shift in the way we interact with each other. Philosopher James Garvey explores the hidden story of persuasion and the men and women in the business of changing our minds. From the covert PR used to start the first Gulf War to the neuromarketing of products to appeal to our unconscious minds, he reveals the dark arts practiced by professional persuaders. How did we end up with a world where beliefs are mass-produced by lobbyists and PR firms? Is it too late, or can we learn to listen to reason again? The Persuaders is a call to think about how we think now.

The debate about the existence of climate change seems finally at an end. We now have to decide what to do about it. Here, James Garvey argues that the ultimate rationale for action on climate change cannot be simply economic, political, scientific or social, though no doubt our decisions should be informed by such things. Instead, climate change is largely a moral problem. What we should do about it depends on what matters to us and what we think is right. . This book is an introduction to the ethics of climate change. It considers a little climate science and a lot of moral philosophy,
