Chapter 1

This chapter covers many things that at least for me were sort of surprising, it covers the many basic ways of how we need to understand the way we perceive things to have a better overall understanding of psychology. What I just said was a broad explanation, but it provides great definitions on how people may view things such as conspiracies and how we should look at it from a more psychological perspective. What struck me as most surprising is how many of the things explained in the chapter I have fallen victim to, not saying that I don't agree to some of my beliefs, but the chapter pinpointed so many things I have thought. Overall I think the most important message was that in this field you really need to have an open mind, and not get caught up in what you want to believe, but understand that you may be wrong and need to except it as a learning lesson.
