Cognitive Bias

Dominating Discourses Book 8

By: Kenrick Cleveland

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

This eighth e-book in the Dominating Discourses series teaches you how to recognize and use to your advantage no less than seven common cognitive biases.

You are taught hot to deal with bait and switch tactics, an increasingly common method of trying to put someone on the wrong foot in a discussion. Not only will you become aware when someone is trying to do this to you, you will also be able to turn the tables and shut them down.

You are taught methods to introduce peace and balance in the midst of disputes by carefully framing your words, following a fourfold framework. This can quickly bring a divisive discussion to order.

The bulk of the book is devoted to exploring no less than seven cognitive biases which people display, teaching you how to recognize each one and leverage it to your advantage: confirmation bias; the cheerleader effect bias; clustering illusion bias; distinction bias; hostile media effect bias; the hot hand fallacy bias and the hyperbolic discounting bias.

This book is a jam packed powerhouse of persuasion through rhetoric.
