Emotional and Moral Manipulations: How Feelings Shape Our Judgments (2 in 1)

This book contains the following two titles:

- The Appeal to Emotion Fallacy: Logical fallacies are errors in reasoning that undermine the validity of an argument. They are often used unintentionally, but in many cases, they are deliberately employed to manipulate or persuade others. A logical fallacy may seem convincing on the surface, yet it lacks a sound basis when scrutinized more closely. Understanding logical fallacies is crucial because they can mislead audiences, derail thoughtful discussion, and obstruct the pursuit of truth.

- The Just-World Hypothesis: The Just-World Hypothesis is a psychological concept that suggests people have a deep-seated belief that the world is inherently fair, where individuals get what they deserve. This belief leads people to assume that good things happen to good people, and bad things happen to bad people. It is a cognitive bias that serves as a mechanism for reducing feelings of anxiety or uncertainty about the randomness and chaos of the world. This belief in a just world helps individuals to feel more in control of their lives and less vulnerable to the uncertainties of the world around them.
