Reader comments
The psychology book is a bit special, and it is mentioned that he learned martial arts from a sage from the Shaolin Temple and gained some insights, but it is not like psychology and more like meditation or riding. Other than that, the general content of the entire book is about some relatively common psychological knowledge. There is one point worth thinking about. He mentioned that our daughter likes to deceive herself. Even if it is a mental illness, it is a very sad image. If it is not adjusted in time, it will have a great impact on physical and mental health. You can browse it casually and learn something.
"Thinking, Irrational" is based on the personal experience of the author and his young daughter, starting from a conversation early in the morning, unfolding layer by layer, and then meditating, focusing, wandering and other ideological activities together with his daughter.

The book talks a lot about our inner psychological phenomena, as well as many interesting stories and examples, which made me read it with gusto. What I hate most is mind wandering. It always distracts me from studying. However, this book made me understand that it is normal to be distracted, and we can improve our concentration through some methods. I think this book helped me a lot and made me understand more about the way I think.
Looking at the author, the author of this book, Joseph Cardillo, is a best-selling psychology author in the United States. This book is a theoretical and practical book. After reading it, it will be of significant help in controlling your emotions. I feel that the use of sensibility in today's world is much higher than rationality, and the author of this book believes that even rationality is the result of sensibility. In fact, this statement is not unreasonable. Hormones such as dopamine, adrenaline, and endorphins all affect our emotional logic and thinking judgment. The content also has very clear solutions on how to resolve emotions. This is an interesting and inspiring book.
