Mindwise

More about the book

How well do we really understand the minds of others? Why do we so often misread them, and how can we improve? Humans have an extraordinary, but imperfect, capacity for social intelligence. In Mindwise, renowned psychologist Nicholas Epley shows us how to hone our 'sixth sense'. 'Mindwise stands out from the crowd . . . You emerge from reading it understanding both yourself and others better.' Daniel Finkelstein, The Times 'One of the smartest and most entertaining books I have read in years.' Steven D. Levitt, coauthor of Freakonomics 'A brilliant and beautiful exploration of the mystery of other minds . . . one of the best books of this or any other decade.'
