Shelby’s Reviews > Factfulness: Ten Reasons We're Wrong About the World – and Why Things Are Better Than You Think > Status Update

This book pokes holes in the emotionally based “facts” that we receive from the media and teaches you how to take the shiny, drama filled information and look at it from different angles.

Moral of the story. The news sells a story, not factual information.

Back at it… A good read for the times we are in right now.

Usually I go for a more spiritual/esoteric based material on how the brain works, perspectives and using affirmations as a way to reprogram the mind. This book does the same it seems, though using facts, data and tangible figures to reprogram the mind and prove different perspectives. This is a refreshing change.
