How Our Intuitions Deceive Us

 Taught By ProfessorChristopher Chabris, Union College

       Why isintuition so important?  Becauseintuition is the rapid thinking that we aren't aware of that

we do most of the time; because intuition comprises most ofthe thinking that  we do in our lives.

This unique and insightful seminar is chock full of audienceexperiments,cartoon clips, and even a

Woody Allen joke.

     ProfessorChristopher Chabris deconstructs the everyday illusions that we   have about how our

minds work  (no...youcannot  safely talk on your cell phonewhile driving!)   In doing so, Chabrisleads us

toward a greater awareness of our own minds, and a greatersensitivity

toward some basic faults in human nature.
