About
Why do we make irrational decisions? How do our emotions affect our thinking?
How can we transform our understanding of the neuroscience and psychology of curiosity into practical
solutions to overcome its destructive consequences and harness this powerful force for the benefit of
civilization?
In his clear and accessible book, Humanity: Renaissance, author Aleksandr Prokofev explores the hidden
cognitive structures that really influence our judgments and actions. Drawing on the latest research in
neuroscience and behavioral economics, the author uses conversational language and popular science to
demonstrate how phenomena such as confirmation bias and perceptual distortion work. The book offers
practical tools and strategies to help readers recognize their own cognitive traps, make better decisions, and
improve the quality of their lives.
