Why do we believe what we believe? Is what we believe the truth? How can we convince others of our beliefs? If you&rsquo;ve ever found yourself pondering these questions, you know that the answers are rarely clear-cut. We need to form beliefs in order to navigate the world, but how skilled are we at evaluating evidence for those beliefs or weighing new data that contradicts them? In this week&rsquo;s TPWKY book club episode, <a href="https://kucharski.io/" data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://kucharski.io/&source=gmail&ust=1775749832640000&usg=AOvVaw2_Pnjo0uX2b9tBDqGw5zUs">Adam Kucharski</a>, Professor at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine joins me to discuss latest book,&nbsp;<a href="https://bookshop.org/a/3175/9781541606692" data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://bookshop.org/a/3175/9781541606692&source=gmail&ust=1775749832640000&usg=AOvVaw1cugQdxpMIV9WRoXiopRjT">Proof: The Art and Science of Certainty</a>. With this book, Dr. Kucharski presents a compelling and thoughtful examination of the concept of proof, delving into topics ranging from the justice system (what&rsquo;s a reasonable doubt?) to infectious disease, clinical design to the founding of this country. And he leaves us with a powerful lesson: what convinced you of something might not convince someone else. Tune in for a fascinating conversation!
