About this book

Andy Norman's book "Mental Immunity" explores the rapidly developing field of brain immunology or mental immune health. It talks about how having the freedom to express one's opinions might weaken mental defenses and encourage the development of "mind parasites" like ideology and conspiracy theories. To improve mental immunity against such ideological transmission, the book suggests a 'mind vaccine.'

About the author

Andy Norman

Mental Immunity argues that bad ideas spread the way infections do and that a mind can be inoculated against them, and it builds the case from the philosophy of reasoning rather than from psychology alone. Norman taught philosophy at Carnegie Mellon and founded a project on the subject.
