The Optimism Bias: A Tour of the Irrationally Positive Brain by Tali Sharot

4.0

I enjoyed Sharot's glimpse into the workings of the optimistic mind, though I might have preferred a bit more information about the experiments. The data felt a bit scarce in places.
The writing, overall, was excellent, and that which she did provide was fascinating and provocative. This was definitely a fun (pop) science read.
