反智: 不願說理的人是偏執，不會說理的人是愚蠢，不敢說理的人是奴隸
By 古倫姆斯識破迷惑人心的把戲、似是而非的話術理性並非本能，理智需要鍛鍊《反智》蒐羅了常見的推理謬誤、邏輯缺陷、數字迷思、偏見和陰謀論，以當今社會的著名事件和近代歷史的精采故事為例，告訴我們如何識破種種迷惑人心的把戲、似是而非的話術，以及如何建立分析性思考的能力。你覺得下面這個三段論，有沒有問題呢？前提一：人皆不免一死。前提二：蘇格拉底不免一死。結論 ：因此，蘇格拉底是人。如果你覺得完全沒問題，那麼我們把「人」換成「狗」，重寫如下：前提一：狗皆不免一死。前提二：蘇格拉底不免一死。結論 ：因此，蘇格拉底是狗。看得出來問題出在哪裡嗎？我們再舉兩個同樣類型的錯誤推理的案例：前提一：巴黎在歐洲。前提二：我在歐洲。結論 ：因此，我在巴黎。前提一：共產黨贊成加稅。前提二：我的政敵贊成加稅。結論 ：因此，我的政敵就是共產黨。你知道嗎：．社群媒體上被分享的文章，有六成是沒仔細讀過內容的人轉傳的。許多人只因為標題很吸睛，就按讚、 按分享！或是因為標題令人憤怒，就在鍵盤上充滿熱血、展現義憤！．政客使用統計學，就和醉酒的人使用燈柱一樣，是為了支撐，而不是為了照亮。．賣房子的人說：「前年房價雖然跌了50%，但去年又強彈了50%，買家完全沒有虧到錢喔。」他應該是 很誠實，才會這麼坦白吧？．命理師和占星家說：「你很善良和熱情，但如果你感覺遭到背叛，你也可能產生令人招架不住的怒火與 怨憤。」你覺得很準吧！所以，他們幾乎對每個人都這麼說。．人的記憶，並不像錄影裝置，你只要錄下事件，以後就可以回顧。記憶其實更接近維基百科，你可以上 去改動它——但是別人也可以。．媒體好像分不出「一場車禍意外」與「一場文明危機」之間有何差別，所以行車記錄器新聞，往往凌駕 於專業鏡頭下的深度報導……我們習慣追求速度、勝過追求真實度，習於反應、而非反省。我們具有上帝般的科技，卻擁抱中古時代的習俗，懷有舊石器時代的情緒。
