Download Liars and Outliers: Enabling the Trust that Society Needs to Thrive AudioBook Free

How does culture function when you can't trust everyone? Whenever we think about trust, we in a natural way think about personal associations or bank vaults. That's too slim. Trust is much broader, and much more important. Nothing at all in culture works without trust. It is the foundation of neighborhoods, business, democracy - everything. Within this insightful and entertaining reserve, Schneier weaves along ideas from across the social and biological Science & Technologys to make clear how culture induces trust. He shows how trust works and fails in interpersonal settings, neighborhoods, organizations, countries, and the earth. In the current hyper-connected culture, understanding the mechanisms of trust is really as important as understanding electricity was a hundred years earlier. Issues of trust and security are critical to handling problems as diverse as corporate and business responsibility, global warming, and our moribund political system. After listening to Liars and Outliers, you'll think about interpersonal problems, large and small, differently.
