Cautionary tales - good podcast by Tim Harford
Some of you may enjoy this podcast by Tim Harford. Talks about mistakes, and psychology behind them. Think essential listening before the election is "Buried by the Wall Street Crash" http://timharford.com/etc/more-or-less/. Talks about cognitive dissonance, and why people stick with positions despite evidence to the contrary - often clinging harder as evidence mounts up against previously held view. Sound familiar?
