Anotace knihy

We live in a world full of stories: "Success comes from hard work." "Video games cause violence." But how often are these stories actually true? This compact and engaging book is here.
In The Causality Illusion, is a short, easy-to-read exploration of how we humans constantly mistake correlation for causation, fall for compelling narratives, and misread the world around us-all with the best intentions.
Written by a social science researcher who loves observing the world, blending real-world case studies, psychological insights, and research in economics, sociology, and political science, this book takes readers on a journey through the hidden pitfalls of cause-and-effect thinking.
You'll discover:

• Why smart people fall for bad causal stories.
• How classic studies shaped our understanding of evidence.
• What we can do to spot misleading claims.
• What AI, big data, and algorithms can (and can't) tell us about causality

This isn't a textbook. There's no math. No jargon. Just one small book packed with insights designed for curious minds, whether you're a student, a thinker, or just tired of being fooled by "obvious" cause-and-effect claims.
