Calling Bullshit pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載 2024
It’s not just fake news. Bullshit is everywhere. Now, two science professors give us the tools to dismantle misinformation and think clearly in a data-saturated world.
The world is awash in bullshit, and we’re drowning in it. Politicians are unconstrained by facts. Science is conducted by press release. Startup culture elevates bullshit to high art. These days, calling bullshit is a noble act.
Based on Carl Bergstrom and Jevin West’s popular course at the University of Washington, Calling Bullshit is a modern handbook to the art of skepticism. Bergstrom, a computational biologist, and West, an information scientist, catalogue bullshit in its many forms, explaining and offering readers the tools to see through the obfuscations, deliberate and careless, that dominate every realm of our lives. They instruct readers to ask:
• Who is saying it?
• How do they know?
• What do they have to gain by persuading me?
• Are the numbers or results too good or too dramatic to be true?
• Is the claim comparing like with like or apples and oranges?
• Is it confirming your personal bias?
In this lively guide to everything from misleading statistics to “fake news,” Bergstrom and West help you recognize bullshit whenever and wherever you encounter it–in data, in conversation, even within yourself–and explain it to your crystal-loving aunt or casually racist uncle. Now more than ever, calling bullshit is crucial to a properly functioning community, whether it be a circle of friends, a network of academics, or the citizenry of a nation.
我記得我以前非常焦慮的時候,前男友會說,彆擔心啦,你這麼intelligent,你怎麼就會過不好生活呢。 當時我想你說的這都什麼跟什麼,聰明的人就一定過得好嗎?! 現在居然有點同意他,想想相比大部分人,我更會識彆假新聞吧,我更理解權威≠真理吧,我更會總結規律吧,我更不容易屈服於cognitive bias吧,這就省瞭多少時間少走瞭多少彎路? #看callingbullshit有感
