DESCRIPTION:Saved in Palaner as: saved\n\nPalaner match: 26% · why: lots of
  people going\n\nHow both logical and emotional reasoning can help us live
  better in our post-truth world\n\n“Advanced mathematics could make a mean
 ingful contribution to creating a better society. . . this book is proof i
 t can.” —Guardian\n\nIn a world where fake news stories change election ou
 tcomes\, has rationality become futile? In The Art of Logic in an Illogica
 l World\, Eugenia Cheng throws a lifeline to readers drowning in the illog
 ic of contemporary life. Cheng is a mathematician\, so she knows how to ma
 ke an airtight argument. But even for her\, logic sometimes falls prey to 
 emotion\, which is why she still fears flying and eats more cookies than s
 he should. If a mathematician can't be logical\, what are we to do?\nIn th
 is insightful\, useful\, and funny book\, Cheng reveals the inner workings
  and limitations of logic\, and explains why alogic—for example\, emotion—
 is vital to how we think and communicate. Cheng shows us how to use logic 
 and alogic together to navigate a world awash in bigotry\, mansplaining\, 
 and manipulative memes. Settling the timeless battle of head vs heart\, th
 is essential book is for anyone who wants to think more clearly.
