Description

A study of how reason can be influenced by wishful thinking and how it shapes a person's outlook on life as well as their behaviour.
Reviews
"It is invevitable that a book of this scope and ambition will be controversial...What ought not to be controversial, however, is that David Pears has given us an outstandingly lucid and intelligent account of mtters of the highest importance. It is the first comprehensive and unified treatment of the paradoxes of irrational thought and irrational action." - Jon Elster, 'Times Literary Supplement'

Will definitely use again!

Great experience and I have zero concerns. They communicated through the shipping process and if there was any hiccups in it, they let me know. Books arrived in perfect condition as well as being fairly priced. 10/10 recommend. I will definitely shop here again!

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
