When Bad Thinking Happens to Good People: How Philosophy Can Save Us from Ourselves

byLawrence ShapiroandSteven Nadler

Lawrence Shapiro & Steven Nadler uses When Bad Thinking Happens to Good People to investigate how Philosophy Can Save Us from Ourselves through a carefully framed focused examination. By tracing causes alongside consequences, the narrative gives readers both a grounded account and a route into the wider field of philosophy. Specific examples keep the larger argument tangible and reveal why familiar explanations do not always account for the full story. Together, these elements make When Bad Thinking Happens to Good People an accessible guide to the subject and the questions it continues to raise.
