About this book

Why people defend mistakes rather than acknowledge them is the subject of this psychology book. It examines cognitive dissonance and the ways self-justification shapes memory, prejudice, public decisions and intimate relationships. The discussion also considers how admitting fault can interrupt repeated errors and reduce patterns of blame and defensiveness.
