Cracked (humour website) on logical fallacies and cognitive biases.
Subheadings:
We’re Not Programmed to Seek “Truth,” We’re Programmed to “Win”
Our Brains Don’t Understand Probability
We Think Everyone’s Out to Get Us Are your enemies innately Evil?
We’re Hard-Wired to Have a Double Standard (Fundamental attribution error)
Facts Don’t Change Our Minds (We change our minds less often than we think)
Most of which should be familiar but good example of presenting these ideas in a readable style. Might be a useful resource to point people to who would be put off by the style here.
This actually got its own post a few days ago.
