Explore the intricate science of human interaction with Steven Pinker’s ‘When Everyone Knows That Everyone Knows…’. This insightful book by a world-renowned thinker delves into the profound impact of common knowledge on our social, political, and economic lives. Discover why we think alike, understand each other’s thoughts, and how this shared awareness fuels everything from financial markets and revolutions to social media outrage and diplomatic posturing. Pinker brilliantly unravels the paradoxes of human behavior, explaining why we often conceal what’s obvious, leading to hypocrisy, innuendo, and the avoidance of uncomfortable truths. A must-read for understanding harmony, hypocrisy, and outrage in the modern world.
