Description

Why do humans struggle to update their views even when faced with new evidence? Resistance to Belief Change: Limits of Learning by Routledge explores the deep-seated tendencies that prevent us from evolving our perspectives. This book provides a comprehensive look at the psychological and neurological factors that drive our refusal to change. By integrating research from philosophy, cognition, and learning theory, authors Lao and Young examine how emotion and social context influence our mental rigidity. The text explains how this resistance acts as a barrier to personal and professional progression. Understanding these limits is essential for anyone looking to improve how they process information and adapt to new realities. Failure to adapt beliefs to informed evidence can lead to significant setbacks. This book examines the real-world costs of cognitive rigidity across various sectors, including science, law, medicine, education, business, and politics. It is a vital resource for students and professionals interested in applied psychology and the mechanics of human learning.
