Description
In which the author offers a challenging and controversial excursion through history, psychology, and scandals, to illustrate that we do not know how to make sense of people we do not know, and the consequences of some of these ill-informed decisions. For example, how did Fidel Castro fool the CIA for a generation? Why did Neville Chamberlain think he could trust Adolf Hitler? What allowed the Jerry Sandusky pedophilia scandal at Penn State to persist for so many years? How could Bernie Madoff deceive so many people into trusting him with their life savings?
