- Author: Jonathan Haidt
- Page Length: 530 pages
- Drawing on his twenty-five years of groundbreaking research on moral psychology, Jonathan Haidt shows how moral judgments arise not from reason but from gut feelings. He shows why liberals, conservatives, and libertarians have such different intuitions about right and wrong, and he shows why each side is actually right about many of its central concerns.
- In this subtle yet accessible book, Haidt gives you the key to understanding the miracle of human cooperation, as well as the curse of our eternal divisions and conflicts. If you're ready to trade in anger for understanding, read The Righteous Mind.

it's the equivalent of reading a book about the benefits of smoking during the 80's
It twists a vast majority of the research to fit a narrative. It sells books but it's junk science.
the psychology field is currently in a dark age after a brief renaissance in the early 2000's. During that golden age we learned a lot about how people behave.
Unfortunately a lot of what we learned wasn't good. Learning we're stupid violent selfish apes wasn't great for the field.
Not since the Milgrim experiments has psychology been so divisive. People refuse to even call it STEM because of the uncomfortable truths uncovered.
And so books like this have cropped up to reassure humanity were different from animals Researchers who discovered just how simian and predictable humans can be have been pushed out of academia for their blasphemy. Where are those researchers now?

they're currently controlling your feeds, tricking you with like buttons, and rewiring your brains with the things they learned.
I encourage people interested in this topic to read more about how the brain affects not just political leanings but how one thinks in general. If you are holding a phone or consume any digital information you owe it to yourself to understand how your brain processes that stimulus and reacts to it.

"In 2019, Haidt argued that there is a "very good chance American democracy will fail, that in the next 30 years we will have a catastrophic failure of our democracy"."

if you want something more entertaining, I'd recommend the "social dilemma" documentary.
it doesn't go deep into the advanced workings of the brain but it shows how our actions and behaviors are manipulated. It drives home the point. When you're having doubts about your free will, you're thinking correctly lol

This is not the type of book that is supposed to reassure us we are somehow special enlightened beings compared to animals. I just read the books Behave and Determined by Sapolsky, the ape researcher and neuroscientist who doesn't believe in free will, and I was surprised how much he referenced Haidt's work.
It's been about 10 years since I read this. At the time, I found it to be really good and I think its insights are true and are helpful about understanding how we all think.
I'd highly recommend this book for anyone that thinks they might find it interesting. At $2, why not??
And for the people wondering about his politics, he definitely started out left leaning! He studied political psychology with the goal to help democrats win more elections. But his research led him to be more centrist.
It's a great book to read anytime, but maybe now more than ever.
