Mistakes Were Made, but Not by Me: Why We Justify Foolish Beliefs, Bad Decisions, and Hurtful Acts
Mistakes Were Made, but Not by Me is a thought-provoking exploration of self-deception. The authors, notable psychologists Carol Tavris and Elliot Aronson, use fascinating case studies and anecdotes to illustrate how we justify our mistakes and poor decisions, often unconsciously projecting blame onto others and distorting reality to align with our preconceived narratives.Published in Dec 31, 2006
