🌟NEW RELEASE 🌟

Our big brains are super-efficient but glitchy. In "True or False? The Science of Perception, Misinformation, and Disinformation" Scientists estimate that 90% of what we see, hear, smell, or sense never really sinks in.

Instead, we pick up on the big things, general impressions, or important stuff and end up leaving our brains to fill in the missing info.

This book explores what psychology tells us about development and persistence of false perceptions and beliefs and the difficulty of correcting them.

Often, children who lose a loved one to overdose are not truthfully told what happened to the person who died, because of the stigma associated with this type of death. They often assume that the death was their fault (rather than that it was the symptom of a disease) and that it’s not okay to remember their loved one, nor is it okay to feel angry about the death.

Hear All the Pieces read aloud by the author, Hallie Riggs, MSW, LICSW, in this week's .
