The Mysteries of the Mind. How We Deceive Ourselves and Others

The Mysteries of the Mind. How We Deceive Ourselves and Others

We often think that we — grown-up people — understand everything about ourselves and are well acquainted with ourselves. We have developed logic, we can think and make decisions. And it seems that there is nothing that happens to us... without our knowledge. Not at all! In practice, it turns out that we do not always understand the motives behind our actions.
Why do we often make mistakes in our assumptions? Did you know that we have hidden mechanisms of consciousness at work?
Ekaterina Oksanen investigates how unconscious processes and psychological defenses can manifest in romantic, friendly, and family relationships.
The book will be useful for anyone who wants to better understand themselves and others, learn to make more conscious decisions, and build harmonious relationships with those around them. Discover new horizons of self-knowledge and interpersonal communication!
