“Trivers's knowledge of a range of disparate subjects is impressive.... Zooming in from the evolution of group interaction to the adaptations of neurology, Trivers writes in depth about how poor our brains are at grasping anything that could be considered an ‘objective' reality. We're constantly fooling ourselves.”

“InThe Folly of FoolsRobert Trivers...explains that the most effectively devious people are often unaware of their deceit. Self-deception makes it easier to manipulate others to get ahead. Particularly intelligent people can be especially good at deceiving themselves. Mining research in biology, neurophysiology, immunology and psychology, Mr. Trivers delivers a swift tour of the links between deception and evolutionary progress.”

Who would have thought that Arnold Schwarzenegger would have had such an interesting life? Arnold was one of those people who worked very hard for everything he has, and actually deserved his eventual fame and fortune.
Great book.

Indeed abundance is definitely all around us, if only we knew how the world works I'm very satisfied with my purchase!"

This book is very interesting, informative, and well written. It is well written and provides insights into the Stoic philosophy. I highly recommend this book.
