  • BOOK BLURB:
      How can we turn back the tide of post-truth politics, fake news, and misinformation that is damaging our democracy? First, by empowering citizens to recognize and resist political lies and deceptions: Using cutting-edge neuroscience research, we show you the tricks post-truth politicians use to exploit our mental blindspots and cognitive biases. We then share with you strategies to protect yourself and others from these threats. Second, by addressing the damage caused by the spread of fake news on social media: We provide you with effective techniques for fighting digital misinformation. Third, by exerting pressure on politicians, media, and other public figures: Doing so involves creating new incentives for telling the truth, new penalties for lying, and new ways of communicating across the partisan divide. To put this plan into action requires the rise of a Pro-Truth Movement - a movement which has already begun, and is making a tangible impact. If you believe truth matters, and want to protect our democracy, please read this book, and join us. In the lead up to the 2020 US Presidential Election, Dr. Gleb Tsipursky and Tim Ward have teamed up to help citizens learn to protect themselves from lies, and empower them to put truth back into politics.

This summer I would love to go on vacation to a beach. We need this respite as I have not had a holiday in over 5 years. What a relaxing and lovely getaway this would be. Not planned as yet but hopefully will happen.

Lots of relaxing on the back porch. The kids have just put up the badminton/volleyball net so that should keep them active and fit for the summer.

Relaxing! Thanks to the coronavirus lockdown, my summer “to do” list is already done. Later this summer, I hope to go with my sister on our annual "Old Lady Road Trip" but given the current situation, that is seeming more and more unlikely.
