It's at the top of the list.

Confession - I've been pretty fucked up by this recently. I've read a bunch of cognitive psych books; How We Decide had some interesting stuff in it that sticks with you. A lot of it was kind of... out there, though. Nonetheless, it incorporated into my cosmology. Shit, some of it made it into the novel.

And now there's a flag on the play - shit's made up. How much of it? Who knows. Enough that Penguin pulped the book. So all those little anecdotes that make up my understanding of cognitive psych?

ALL under a cloud.

I probably should read this one next. I'm just feeling a little burned by pop psych at the moment.
