The Confidence Game: The Psychology of the Con and Why We Fall for It Every Time by Maria Konnikova
5.0
This was a very fascinating read. Konnikova has a talent of weaving real-life cases with research in a way that constantly keeps you hooked. And those stories are not dropped after one appearance, but are continuously built upon the further we go in understanding a con.
This is the type of book you need a lot of brain space to read, however. It's heavy with well researched information, and it's worth reading it slowly to fully process all that is present. I will definitely check Konnikova's other books.
