The Intelligence Trap: Revolutionise Your Thinking and Make Wiser Decisions by David Robson is a thought-provoking book that explores why intelligence alone does not guarantee good judgment.

Many highly intelligent individuals—from scientists and business leaders to political figures—have made surprisingly poor decisions. In this insightful book, science writer David Robson examines the psychological reasons behind these mistakes and explains how even brilliant minds can fall into cognitive traps.

Drawing on research from psychology, neuroscience, and behavioral science, the book reveals how biases, overconfidence, and emotional thinking can influence decision-making.

Robson introduces the concept of “cognitive humility,” encouraging readers to question their assumptions, remain open to new ideas, and approach problems with curiosity and critical thinking.

Through engaging examples and practical advice, The Intelligence Trap shows how people can improve their reasoning, avoid mental pitfalls, and make better choices in both personal and professional life.

Perfect for readers interested in psychology, critical thinking, decision-making, and personal development.
